2 Distinctive Noises You May Be Experiencing
Hey all,
Got an 03 Touring 6spd here. 13500miles or so.
Noise #1.... with a clutch out (in neutral), makes a metallic garggling (is this a word?!). I've searched the board and it seems like a lot of people have this issue but there's no pin-pointed answer to it.
Noise #2... perhaps a gear whine? when cruising (low and high speed) i hear gear whines. mostly when throttle is applied.... and sometimes when off the throttle too. it's pretty loud. perhaps a starting sign of a bad tranny?
there are other noises (like few interior quirks) that i am not too worried about right now. and the rear axle noise.. which there's a TSB for.
just wanted to know your experience and suggestion.

As for the second one. Do you have an aftermarket stereo system? It could be engine interference that transmitts through your speakers. I have this as well, though not too noticable. If not, I dont know what this sound could be.
