I notice a "whooshing" sound when I start my car (especially when my top is down). It's constant after the engine is running. Once I put my foot on the clutch the sound changes but it is still there. It's very noticable. Today I started my car and could hear the "sucking air" sound. Once I pushed in my clutch which would usually quiet the noise slightly, I could hear a slight "clanking" sound. The typical "marbles in a can" sound. It's not real loud but it's there. I think it has something to do with the clutch cause when I push it in, the sound changes pitch and volume. What do you think? I am ready to take her in to an autoshop.
Do I have a problem with my clutch...?

I think I have the same thing going on with my tranny. I thought it was the TOB but I looked at it (small opening in trans) and nothing looked out of wack. Mine makes different sounds that are difficult to describe but the clutch engages fine. I am thinking I need a fluid change since it's never had one and it's a 98 (69,000 miles).
What are the best recommended brands (and weight) of fluid to use in the T45?

Oh and when do you have the "marbles in a can" sound? Clutch engaged or disengaged?
disengaged... pedal pushed in.
Mines a '98 with 69,000 miles on it. Maybe I just need a fluid change. That would be cool.
