sounds from transmission
 

bought a 5spd 98 civic 4dr to fix awhile back. but when i got it running it was making a grinding noise from the trans.
when i push the clutch in the noise stops though?
when i test drove it, it sounds like im dragging a cardboard box underneath the car
i havent taken it back apart yet. if anyone is familiar with this. would it be the gear box, bearings, or clutch?
just getting opinions for what to expect when i open it up. or what to look for
it just the stock d16 engine and transmission

throw out bearing

This!!

It will eventually seize and start eating at the diaphragm, lol ask me how i know

how do you know? :bananaman:

input shaft bearing :doobie:

Little green men told me:P

thanks for the heads up. im going to search those now. throw out and input or are they the same?

No, you need to pull the transmission apart to get to the input shaft bearing.

:bigok::funnypost::grin::blunt:

When opening the gear box, are there any springs to look out for??
