Hi,

    What would cause this to happen? It makes intermittent grinding noises
when stopped, and loud grinding noises intermittently when driving,
especially under load (i.e. going up a hill, etc). The trans was just
rebuilt, but the noise is still there. The clutch is a centerforce
dual-friction, and the pilot and throw-out bearings were replaced when I
swapped in the 360. The throwout bearing is rattling in neutral with the
pedal released (3rd one to go bad in 50,000 miles). Any ideas? Could the
throwout bearing, if bad, be causing all of this?
