A while ago I replaced all the 3rd gear components apart from the 3rd gear bush in the 5 speed.
All the gears now shift nicely with no crunching. There is though an issue when I shift from 2nd or 4th into 3rd.
As I release the clutch pedal upon selecting 3rd gear there is a whirring noise,that sounds like a bearing or bushing spinning,
that then goes away when throttle is applied.
All the internal bearings were replaced apart from the diff bearings. The clutch and release bearing were also replaced.
I have it apart at the moment to replace the 3rd gear bushing to see if that is causing the issue and I would appreciate any thoughts as to what
it may possibly be. I have attached some photos of the 3rd and 4th gear bushings and would be interested to know what people think may be the source of the noise or what the wear patterns indicate. . Also advice as to whether the diff bearings look worn and should be replaced.
Thanks
Peter
