TOB aka Throw Out Bearing.
/thread

 

opps yeah your right! i was using that search thingy! and not paying attention to dates... my bad, but who knows maybe it will benefit someone else using search (do other people use search even?)

 

blaze, even tho you have 2,598 more posts than me i really dont think that is the tob, its the isb... my car has the same symtoms and im tore it apart... tob seems good and the isb is a disaster, it sitting on the desk right beside me.... when my car was in Neutral and i DIDNT have my foot on the clutch, it sounded like me tranny was full of gravel... as soon as i pushed the clutch to the floor it would quit...

 

Smells like 2003 up in here!!!

 

My post count means nothing other than I posted that many times.
According to your post, I guess ISB is a possibility.
