Hi All,
Got a 2011 B9 Berlingo van with DV6 engine and BE4R gearbox here, I did a clutch and thrust bearing change a couple of weeks ago (what a pain that was!) and ever since the gearbox input shaft has been making a grinding noise like a dry worn bearing - I assume its the I/P shaft as when the clutch is pressed it goes silent and when the clutch is released to the bite point, so still under tension, is it makes the sound. And yup I've double checked the oil level which is OK.
Does anyone know if these models have spigot bearings and ive just not known about it so its fallen out or something? And is the plastic breather port on top is the only oil fill point for the whole gearbox/diff? I'm just trying to think what could have caused it as I didn't touch anything gearbox side - any suggestions welcome!
Thanks
