Hi there folks i've just bought a corsa 1600 and wen it is running it seems to be loud from the gearbox just thinking it may be low on gearbox oil???
If it was low on oil would it be noisey or could it be something else??????
you know like wen a engine is low on oil there noisey as are gearboxes the same????????????

could be the clutch release bearing. mine rattles when the clutch is released. especially when the car is first started.
dunno how its rattling but that is defo what it is...and it doesnt cause any harm!
