Grinding Noise in all Gears while driving?

TrophyHead said:

What kind of transmission? T5? Tremec? Was it just rebuilt? Did you get a new clutch?

Does it grind during shifting or grind driving in gear?

Recommend putting it up on jackstands to check for somehing rubbing the driveshaft. t's difficult to give an accurate armchair analysis from your desricption of the problem.

Does it sound like it's in the tranny?

Does the sound change under load, cruise, decell?

Can you feel it in the shifter?

Basic stuff like that eliminates a bunch of different problem sources. More info is better.

I hope that there is atleast fluid in the tranny.

A friend of mine had a local Ford dealer install a long block. They gave him the keys and he drove off. A couple of blocks later the motor stalled due to the oil pan being bone dry.

I want to hear how this turns out.

mine made a sound similar to that when the exhaust rubbed against the drive shaft
there's always gonna be a little noise....how loud is it?

Now that I think about it my 87 LX 2.3L tranny makes alot of noise. I have not changed the fluid since I bought it.

Maybe now would be a good time to try switching to a higher quality fluid? Synthetics? Might help.
