Lo....
Time for a silly question from me
.
Angel's Tipo has started getting noisier and noisier at idle with the clutch disengaged (pedal up), and gears 1-4 and reverse are getting increasingly difficult to engage (reverse is near-impossible)....so Im getting the impression the clutch release bearing is starting to eat the pressure plate.
Also...its starting to sporadically leap out of 5th gear at any speed (usually 70mph+).
I havent yet checked the gearbox oil level...but before I follow a potentially very expensive hunch (and get the clutch replaced), does anyone know if this sounds more like the gearbox going up the proverbial creek?
Im also thinking it could be a bearing within the gearbox making that noise....
