Guest doggybs Posted November 22, 2006 Hi All, This morning my Mi16 developed a strange gearbox problem. In second / third gear, when I back of the throttle I get a bouncing grating noise, and load of vibration through the floor. Sound serious :-(. Changing gear and acceleration is fine, only when back of power. Any ideas? Cheers James. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest doggybs Posted November 22, 2006 So basically happens when rolling in gear, ie upto junctions, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted November 22, 2006 could be the exhaust hitting a heatshield... either because it needs readjusting or because the engine mounts are going soft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest doggybs Posted November 22, 2006 After further investigate its prob the drive shaft or sumit courseing the problem. I just jump to the worst conclusion. Cheers for your input. Thanks James Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
