Weird noises? Hello everyone,
I just wanted some input on some noises that have been coming from my 99 SS.
1. At idle and at 3000+RPM, I can hear and feel a "clacking" through the shifter. It sounds like a little choo-choo train. The shifter I have is a Lous Short Stick.
2. Whenever I turn my steering wheel, I can hear a sound that kind of resembles nails dragging across a cloth seat. I wouldn't describe it as a whirring though.
3. Whenever I am at 5000+RPM and engaged at full throttle, I can hear the sound that resembles the tearing or shredding of paper.
Any suggestions as to what problems these are?

#1 Tranny mount.
#2 Possible PS pump or rack problem... Fluid is fine?
#3 I don't know, but my red TA did the same for a few months when the car was stock... I turbocharged it and, lo and behold, it ceased.
