[QUOTE="Kornilov, post: 14265084, member: 163077"] The car had the tranny replaced around 6k miles on the odo in Jan 2013. In June 2013, at about 8K miles, the trans was pulled again for an input shaft bearing. Car now has 16.5K on it. The symptoms I'm experiencing have been persistent since the second trans service but seem to be worsening over the last 6 months/6k miles. These are the issues with the car: I.) taking off from a stop, in 1st gear, letting out the clutch with light throttle (especially if on an incline such as at an uphill stoplight) the front of the trans will emit a grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr noise II.) sometimes sitting at idle, in N, moving the shifter to different gears will produce loud clanking noises - like a guy hitting the side of a ship with a dead blow hammer III.) once the car warms up to operating temperature, or after an agressive series of shifts/downshifts, follow on shifts/downshifts in regular driving produce loud clank/clunk noises I was under the car recently and shook the driveshaft to see if I could replicate some of the noise I hear when driving. I heard the noise and as I followed the noise up to the front of the car, I could hear the internals of the trans clanking as I move the driveshaft to transmission flange with my hand using small back and forth motions. I mean its distinct and noticeable clank clank noise. Ive driven two other 6spd Coyotes before and this isnt normal drivetrain clunk. 8k miles ago when the tech had my trans. out he said the clutch looked good with no noticeable wear. I still have about 9 months on the 5/60 drivetrain warranty so it will go back in for this, but Ive lost faith in the dealership closes to me from their quality of work on previous occasions. I just wanted to know what the braintrust here thought before I take it in and have them say its 'normal operating noise'. Just to be safe, Im going to pull the Steeda tri-ax, and barton single post so they dont have any excuses to point to. The previous owner had a CHE UCA with OEM mount on the car, but I checked the pinion angle with the tires loaded and it comes right out to -2. None of my others mods have contributed to this as theses issues existed when the car was bone stock. [/QUOTE]
