RE: Talk about manual trans.

umm.. Casper, there's no filter or bands in a manual transmission.
I'm just guessing but if you're refering to a grinding or clashing of gears on high rpm shifts I might be inclined to think you may have lost the synchros on those gears. I've lost my second gear synchro and it shifts fine if you baby it but grinds if you push it very high (4500+ maybe), also grinds on the downshifts if you're not careful. If this is your issue it is bad, the second gear synchro is on the output shaft which can not be dis-assembled and lists for $1300cdn here. It's much cheaper to replace the trans with a used one than fix it. Good news is if you don't abuse it you can probably still get quite a few miles out of it, I ran mine all last summer that way (about 15,000km) and it hasn't gotten any worse.

RE: Talk about manual trans.
So i'm confuse but happy ! yes confuse. This thread was concerning a curious sound from my MTX. Last monday my son ask me for a lift and ear the sound and told me 'it comes from here' than i continued to drive and ask him to listen where the problem could be. For any reason the sound stop. Since i was unable to ear it. I push the speed high in RPM and nothing. Never came back. So that's why i'm confuse but happy [:-]
