I took it around the block just now before touching the brakes and i Revved the engine up a bit as i double clutch (as you do downshifting) and it shifted as it should. So that makes me feel checking for a dragging drum may be the solution. They grab with the slightest touch of the pedal and i have had a loud sound from the shoes when on the brakes.
