I'll continue to test things as I drive home today. But the most damning piece of evidence to me is that if the car is moving, clutch depressed, engine at idle, and in gear, and I then slowly release the clutch, as the engine comes up to speed the noise appears and speeds up accordingly. I suppose I should have a quick check of the tranny oil, just to make sure that's in order. > You been out to Larry Gesch's place?

If this were sounding like a drive shaft issue, I'd probably try to fix it myself. But if this is actually inside the tranny, I think I'll let my local indy Saab shop at least try to diagnose it. Ah well, I've had a very long run at avoiding the shop, I'm probably due anyway. John -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com
