My clutch isnt worn out at all, and when i shift into first, second, and third its fine. but when i shift into fourth gear if i pull back too far on the shifter when im holding in the clutch it makes a grinding noise. i can shift into fourth without making the noise because i know not to pull it back too far but what the hell is the problem with it?

why are pulling to far on the shifter anyway? that might be your problem right there. a syncro could and most likely is damaged.

i suggest you change out your MTF and see what happens.

 

i don't consider it too far, and i shift the same way with each gear so i know that's not why 4th gear grinds.
