i took it for a test drive for a little while and when i shifted into 3rd it made a raddle almost i cant exspane, i havent drive it enough, but only when i let the clutch out. im looking more for the warning signs of it going.

Sounds like the clutch if it only does it when you let out of it..

If when you let out the clutch and the shifter pops out of gear, you have a bent shift fork.

My 4th will not go in on high rpm shifts, it just grinds. Sometimes it will go in and then rocket out and hit my hand and it hurts.
