Re: And another thing...


Well...the investigation continued today as to where the mysterious "tink tink tink" sound was coming from. And I found a MAJOR clue today....

I was sitting at a drive thru window, waiting to be waited on...and I was in nuetral, with my foot on the brake. Well, it was making the tink tink tinking noise the entire time I sat there, and so i made my order, and proceded to take off, I mashed the clutch pedal in, and all of a sudden, NO TINK TINK TINK lol. I was like...hmmmmmm

So i sat there a second, (much to the dismay of ppl who were waiting behind me) and pressed and released the clutch pedal in, and out, about 4 or 5 times...

So, I am positive, that with the clutch pedal pressed in, no noise. With the pedal out, tink tink tink tink tink...and its constant. If im sitting still, and the noise is being made, and i rev the engine, the tinking noise tinks faster...

Now...what do you all think it could be...

Also keep in mind ive recently had the transmission completely overhauled, new clutch and flywheel, at a reputible business, aamco transmissions. The first time they replaced some stuff and it went out completely again and i could hardly drive the thing down the road bc a broken part on the inside gummed it all up and was blocking fluid and this that and the other, the second time, EVERYTHING supposedly was replaced and fixed. I dont think theyd shit me bc like i said this isn't a silly shop with tom dick and harry working there...its a place where if they had too many problems from the same customer, they could get in trouble, so i don't think they are doing shotty work.....or maybe they are...who knows....again this isnt nec. a PROBLEM persay....but it is quite aggrivating after having spent a few thousand for a brand spanking new tranny, and then it tink tinks
