I rebuilt my t5 last summer and it sstarting to clunk when i shift. The sound comes from the tailshaft. I have a brand new alum driveshaft so i doubt its the ujoints but ill check. I can move the output shaft up and down a total of maybe 2mm, seems excessive. I know there is a bronxe guide that was NOT included in the rebuild kit....I think it's suppose to support the output shaft and als oil it......suggestions?

thanks

also check the tranny mount. when this goes it will bounce on the tunnel making noise.

it clunks while shifting, it clunks when the car bucks at low rpm (cam), the throwout bearing is noisy as hell also when the clutch isnt pressed in.
