When the car is in netural with the clutch out there is a slight rattling sound that I can hear from sounds like directly under the shifter, can hear it outside the car not really inside the car. If you give the throttle a very light stab it will viabrate a touch more as the engine somes up in rpm, will only do it for a second though. Also if your in to high of a gear it will rattle quiet bad ie. If you come to a set of lights in second and not come to a complete stop and try to keep going in second it will rattle untill the engine gets to a better rpm.The rattle will go away if you push the clutch in aswell. It only seems to be when its out.I have had the clutch replaced a few days ago but it hasnt changed at all. It did it before they changed the clutch.So anyone have any ideas as to what it could be? I had them check the gearbox oil and was told all was fine Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/73745-rattling-sound-from-gearbox/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should quieten the noise down. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/73745-rattling-sound-from-gearbox/#findComment-1088145 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam_rigger Member 246 Member For: 14y 4m 16d Posted 11/03/11 10:12 AM Share Posted 11/03/11 10:12 AM Mate get 5L of Mainlube in the box, massive difference, lasts over 60,000kms and protects gearbox components. Not cheap but worth it. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/73745-rattling-sound-from-gearbox/#findComment-1088181 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tend to be a little more noisey when they are warm, however this can be all but eliminated with re-shimming. My work ute is dead quiet, even after a 2 1/2 hour drive to work. I'd also recommend using Castrol Transmax Z oil, and changing it every 20,000k's. Transmission and diff oil's are always the forgotten oils, and generally are not changed regularly enough.
