gilto Member 218 Member For: 17y 8m 8d Gender: Male Posted 09/01/09 03:42 AM Share Posted 09/01/09 03:42 AM My car is a little slow to select reverse once the fluid is warmed up....not too much of a problem for me, just a little annoying..However if it's slow taking up and I give it a tiny nudge with the accelerator I can hear this kind of bang from the back. It's not a depp sound, it's more of a high pitch sound........sort of high pitched metal if that makes sense??????????????Any ideas where it would be coming from and what it would be?? Thanks heaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I've had all my diff bushes done recently as I got the fulcrum main bush done.May be the gearbox perhaps?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said slow engage into reverse could be signs of the box being a little tired How many kms she done and is it the original stock auto?
