rattle sound when engaging the gear or while it's engaged?

if the syncros in 4th were bad you'd probably have to double clutch to get into it, I don't think that's it...

If it sounds like it is the exhaust heat shield making the noise maybe your shift linkage is contacting the exhaust pipe or heatshield when you are in 4th. I have never heard of a tranny making a noise that sounds like a rattling exhaust heatshield in a specific gear.

yeah but I doubt it... he said it sounds like his heatshield is loose ... we all know that if you were to jam it in there and grind gears until it slid in, it wouldn't sound like any heatshield..

I have the same problem but it is in all gears. It happens sometimes though.

if it's a "tick tick tick" sound it might be the throwout bearing, but it doesn't make sense that it'd only happen in 4th..

actually, its happening to all gears, 4th is the loudest. 1,2,3, and 5 makes that sound but cant hardly hear it! cause of loud exhaust that i have.

so it possibility the throw out bearing?
