1995 850 Noise when shifting 5 speed manual

Post by dtmmoore2 »

I recently installed a new engine and clutch in my car. When the clutch is cold and for the first twenty shifts or so I hear a noise like the sound of furniture being pushed on a wood floor. I am wondering if this noise could be caused by the torque rod bushings being worn. How do I know for sure what it is?

I think Im going to call in for more description of the noise or a video to help with this one.

If it goes away, it could be release bearing inside the bell housing

You did replace the throwout/release bearing too right? Attached to the shift fork I believe.
