Title: Bad Bearing?
Post by: kirin on February 16, 2006, 11:50:34 AM

Hey guys,
Last night my beetle started making a bad weird noise in fourth gear. The best way I can describe it in fourth and no other gear it goes WOOOO WOOOO WOOOO WOOOO WOOO!. Clutch in, in fourth, Clutch out in fourth, or decaccelerating in fourth it does it. Any clues what it could be? The rest of the tranny shifts find and is relatively quiet.

Were there any trains nearby when that noise appeared?
