Ok so here it is. I bought a 2001 z24 5speed in February. The car is a great car. i've had a few minor things here and there, but nothing to worry about. I've read alot of these posts and they have been alot of help. So heres my problem... In first and second gear mostly, on light acceleration, there is a rattle noise that is loud and is only getting louder in my mind. I've had 5 different mechanics look at it from Chevrolet, Saturn, my personal mechanic and a friend. I've been told it was the release bearing, the breaks, and a bunch of other stuff. It is extremely annoying and find myself turning the volume up louder and louder. Does anybody have ANY ideas on this or any suggestions for me to try. I've been told its part of the car and theres nothing wrong but i beg to differ. You dont spend 10,000 on a car and have to listen to a noise like that.

Any help would be much appreciated.

not much you can do with that I had my tranny replace at 4000km due to same noise under warranty. then the problem occurred again and they only put in a synthetic fluid. The dealer will tell you it is gear rattle. The fluid helped and the noise is not as bad now.

when i read your post i though i made it myself EXACT same problem

man just wonder where your at with it what you did i need help to
hit me back asap

i F-ing hate that nooise

haha, maybe you should have asked 2 years ago, when he was around to answer your question

now i figured it out, instead of sending me a private message, you could have just posted in here, it couldnt have done anymore harm, what i meant was you were asking that person if they ever got their problem solved, and how they fixed it, when the date on their post clearly says 11-29-2004, that was 2 years ago, do you seriously think this person from 2 years ago is gonna come back into this exact thread to answer your question??? im guessing not, just try to look at the dates of posts before you reply to them, bringing a thread back from the dead (like you did) isnt entirely bad, but it is when your directly asking one of the people a question, and expecting an answer, like in this case...
