Man Trans/clutch question
Hey Folks
With the car stationary and engine running and with the manual trans in neutral and the clutch engaged (clutch pedal NOT on the floor), how much noise should be coming from the trans/clutch?
Absolutely quiet ?
Just a little "spinning" noise ?
Lots of noise ?

Hi UncleB!
You should not hear any noise in a perfect world. That being said, I have, for the last 50k miles or so, have heard a whirring noise that disappears when the clutch is pushed in.
118k on the clutch, hoping it's the throwout bearing and not input shaft bearings. I guess I'll find out this spring when I swap out the clutch.

Are you asking how far you need to push the pedal to disengage the clutch? Or are you asking if there should be a noise as you start pushing the pedal and start disengaging the clutch? Need a little more clarity on your question to help you.

Not asking when the clutch should engage or disengage---just wanting to know how much noise (slight whining sound) should occur when the clutch is engaged and the trans is in neutral
Thanx
Thanx

Well it just got confusing when you mentioned pedal position. With the pedal up and the car in neutral you should have some noise as the transmission is spinning inside but it has no where to go (no output). There may be a rattle which is indicative of possibly a bad TOB, or there is a TSB on the separator plate in or around the bell housing that rattles or vibrates.

Just a little "spinning" noise from my 2007 v6 with T5 manual.
And that's the noise level from almost brand new, she has 849 miles.

'06 with TR6350. Clutch in, no noise. Clutch out in neutral, gentle whirring of the gears as they mesh and unmesh, spinning about with nowhere to deliver any power.
So a teensy bit of noticeable... well, sort of a low volume, barely there growling maybe?... is normal. Grinding or squealing or such is not.

Mainly I hear it when she's standing beside a building, so I suppose I'm getting some sort of echo bounce from under the car, maybe.

UncleB, FWIW the V6 and V8 models have different manual transmissions.
Whatcha got?
