Throw out bearing noise? Is it popping outa 6th? Possible you have more than one problem there.

it sounds like a throwout bearing but it also wont hold in 5th gear if you hit the gas and i cant even get it to go into 6th, its like it wont engage the gears, i recognized the rattling before but i never had it pull outta gear when im drivin....i hate trannys

ok i got the verdict from the mechanic....my gears are all worn and it looks like theyve been drivin that way for a while, so it wasnt just my drivin that beat the car to death....the clutch plate is also badly worn....dunno what i did to do that, and the throwout bearing is shot....theyr gettin me a borg warner "heavy duty" clutch and a "heavy duty" tranny....we'll see how long this lasts for...............i hate my luck with this car

Ever thought of doing it yourself? Save alot of money there, I can imagine what a regular shop would charge you. Search here for clutches & trannies. Heck get your own parts installed would prolly save ya. <I know that shop wouldn't be fond of that though. But it'd prolly save you alot of $$$ & you could prolly get much better parts from the sponsors/sources here.

right now i dont have the time or ability to change them both out....i never dropped a tranny before or changed my own clutch....these are the areas i leave to the experts till i get some experience
