Hi,
I have a 95 Nissan Altima with a 5 speed manual trans. The car has 165K miles on it. About a year ago I started hearing a strange grinding / deep clicking noise coming from the transmission. It only does it when the clutch is out. The only way I can get it to stop is if I push the clutch in.
I just replaced the pressure plate, clutch and throw out bearing hoping that would solve the problem, but it did not change a thing. It still make the same grinding / deep clicking noise.
It has gotten considerably louder over the last year and I think something is about to give.
any advice you can give would be great.
