i was driving back from a two hour trip a notice that everytime i accelarated the car, it would make this strange super light metal rubbing metal noise on drive (its not a rod knock or vavle ticking noise). if i pull it on netural and rev the motor you dont heard it at all.. i got home and check it, i know its coming from the transmission side. only thing i can think of is the torque conv. being loose i double check that and its still on there tight. Transmission drive and shift perfect minus the strange noise. This is a 2000 accord/4 cyc/auto. Any input or suggestion would be appriecated.

 

Could it be caused by a heat sheild? Hard to listen to a noise with text. lol

 

no its not the heat shield

 

is there such a thing as a bad input shaft bearing for the automatics. if so would this be the case?
