lets play the 'whats that clutch / transmission problem' game!
i may try to record and upload a vid since these descriptions never really do a problem justice.
problemos:
1st and most alrming one: when flooring it, mostly in 2nd & 3rd, a bad grinding type of noise. definately drivers side so assuming trans/clutch related.
2nd: while decelerating mostly and now even when accelerating, i am hearing a slight repeating thumping noise, that slows down as the car does. sounds alot like when a rotor is warped but i know the rotors are fine.
3rd: after pulls i often smell burning and i think it smells like burning clutch. car doesnt 'slip' however.
4th: its slowly been getting harder more often to get into 1st and reverse
my buddys telling me possibly a t.o.b. / clutch disc issue.
car had new gmpp clutch kit with other stuff put in maybe 20-30k miles ago. im a good driver (dont burn clutch much) but i do ride her hard

doesnt matter if im in gear or neutral for the thumping noise. but for the most part it was only making the noise when off the gas. which made me decide it is not a wheel bearing, though those may be bad as well :lol

Also could be linkage related but would be odd for it to be only 1st and reverse.
What kind of motor trans mounts to you have?
