How long will my transmission last? How much longer do i have? I know that no one really knows exactly for sure, but i'd like some educated guesses.
I have a 1991 civic dx, 5 speed. The transmission shifts fine but it makes noise. No clunk or pop noises. I get whirring and whining.
The noise is faint when I’m accelerating. But gets louder when I’m slowing down. It's louder when I’m still in gear but not accelerating. “Noise on the ‘Decel,’” as someone described it. No noise at all in Nuetral. I only get real noise when deccelerating in 1, 2 and 3rd gear.
But it’s only noisey when I’m going slow--when I get over 33 mph my car sounds wonderful! Fourth and fifth gears sound fine. If I keep accelerating from 1st to 5th it doesn’t sound that bad. I'm happy with the performance.
It's been noisey for a few years.
Could i put a certain gear oil in my trans that might help quiet it down? RedLine?
Any thoughts? All comments welcomed.
