Anyone have thoughts on how to diagnosis this transmission noise? Noise goes away when clutch is depressed. The clutch, pressure plate, pilot and throw out bearings are new and seem very good. Throw out bearing slides smoothly on the shaft, no hang up, no wobble. I pulled engine today, my feeling is the trans input shaft is the problem, it feels a little sloppy, not sure if it should be tight, but I can wiggle it up and down a little. Also twisting left and right, there’s some slop, again not sure what’s an acceptable tolerance? I have video, but for some reason, I can’t attach to this message.
