I replaced my automatic with a manual MD05-R1 about two years ago. Recently it developed a knock in third gear, and quickly spreading to other gears. It knocks even when out of gear idling in the drive way now. I suppect its a bearing on the front shaft. Any insight will help as its parked and Im stuck driving my dads old knock around F150(Its not gas friendly). Thanks!
 






Looking for another vehicle,, Tired of repairing old faithful...She may be for sale, unless i deciede to keep her as a yard decoration...
 






Spend $500 and put in a new tranny. If you've done it before, should be easy to replace. Rebuild kits run about $250. However, I don't understand either what you are asking or what the emergency is.
