Sounds like a shagged bearing or a plucked tooth. If you carry on driving the car, you might knacker the whole 'box.

Get a man in to look at it.

Use the dip stick, just to the left of the intercooler. it's a black handle with a loop on the end.

I think it's probably a bit late for checking oil levels by the sound of things.

Stop driving it, we have a customers car in for gearbox repair, (lost 2 teeth from 3rd gear). He kept driving it, managed to screw up 2nd gear, shynchro hub, crown wheel & pinion. (BIG bill).

(Yep, Scoobysport can help).


Mike.
