Krzys Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 When in gear is the noise there all the time? Or does it come and go when you're on and off the gas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeyvti Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 On when using throttle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Need more info mate. Saying an mph doesn't help really, what gear, what revs? Are you WOT and pushing hard? Or is it just cruising? When was the last time the box oil was changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeyvti Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 its in every gear when pushing hard, when im cruising i dont hear it but then when put foot down you can start to hear it around 4k mark, weird to describe it properly are either you to going to cirencester meet next sunday?

Grant Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I will be mate .. In fairness, I think they all whine a certain amount up top end. Although starting at 4k seems unusual.. When was the box oil done last? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeyvti Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 I will take you out in it and see what you think of it mate, i need to check the history on it as i know something has been done to the box so might be under guarantee but checked the level the other day and was fine and the oil was all clean so i should imagine not that long ago but ive had it almost 12months and i havent changed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Doesnt really need doing ever 12 months .. Would be interested to have a listen mate and know what the work was done .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Hopefully if it's been changed they used the correct fluid, though I'm not sure what the repercussions are for using another gearbox oil other than Honda's MTF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I think there are a few brands that people use and they seem to be ok with .. Me personally, only ever used Honda MTF.. And would probably be worth doing now .. Only £36 for enough to do it .. Plus you'll only need 2 litres next time, so only £24 on your next change! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
