daver clasper Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Hi everyone. Have a mk1 Vitesse i bought 18 months ago. the gearbox was very quite. The overdrive was sticking though on and I may have reversed like this (have fixed overdrive problem and this does not seem damaged) but there is a whizzy sounding rattle in reverse (louder) and first gear.Would this be a shaft bearing (it sounds like it may not be in the depths of gearbox) or is there anything else it may be before I may strip it down.Also, wondering if to leave it for a bit as do low miles and if noise gets worse then do work.Any of your wisdom as always much appreciated.CheersDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daver clasper Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Thanks for getting back to me. I have removed the remote. There is no obvious looseness, play or damage in linkage, though I have not dismantled it. Do I need to?. Also is there anything likely to cause this noise in the selectors under the top cover as I have not removed this.CheersDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
