Is this common??... Grinding sound during Startup
My car runs fine. But... when I start it up in the mornings, it makes this weird sound when I engage into gear. The sound occurs only when I am feathering the clutch up to engage into 1st gear or reverse or just putting it back into neutral. It makes a loud grinding sound...as if the flywheel is rubbing against something. This only happens when the car is cold. When the car is warmed up, the sound is non-existant. A friend told me this was common with all the Zs on a cold start up. Is this true?

Is it coming from engine or tranny?

It comes from the tranny, perhaps from the flywheel. Sounds like a whirling/rubbing sound. Only occurs when the motor is cold.
