grinding tranny + metal shards = ?
Recently it was becoming more difficult to shift into first and finally it resulted in not being able to shift in to any gear. When I was able to shift in to first, or any gear for that matter, it grinded badly.
Right before I took the transmission out, I inspected the slave cylinder and it seems to be working fine. Even replaced it with another used one that I know was working, that didn't fix this problem. I did notice however, that when the clutch pedal was depressed, there was a grinding sound coming from the front of the transmission. (Yes, bled the system.)
I then proceeded to take out the transmission and found this where the input shaft from the transmission goes in through the pressure plate/clutch.
Yeah, no clue where these pieces came from. Took off the pressure plate/clutch and everything appears to be fine.
So that's where I'm at. Pilot bearing seems to be okay. Not noisy, moves nicely.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!
