Worrysome noise please help !...
Hi,
My new used Golf....Getting to be a pain...
Whenever I downshift, especially in wet conditions it seems (But it could be a coincidence), I sometimes hear a high pitch squealing noise that comes from the front driver's side....Now, that has me worried about one of two things:
1) The clutch is going, how can I test this ?
2) Tranny is going. How can I test this ? I plan on changing my tranny oil to synth like...tomorrow...
I also hear a faint squeaking when I shift gears. .. No grinding though....
BTW, 92 Golf, stock, no power anything, no air, completely stock,obviously standart
Ahhhh...the love of owning a car you do not know...I miss my old Jetta....it was old (480 000 km), but I knew exactly all the quirks...
