1990 SPG 152k miles, original babied trans and clutch. Car has proper ammount of fresh lube.
First noticed noise yesterday after driving car in 12 degree weather. It is a gear/bearing noise in 4th and 5th gear. The noise sounds like what straight cut gears sound like but very faint. It's almost like a whirring whine like the type of sound you get when you are in reverse. When I depress the clutch, it is still there which is weird cause it is definately not related to the motor.
What is the classic pinion gear noise and does it match my description? Is it possible my noise is from another bearing/gear in the gearbox? Did cold lube cause my problem? (ie should I have let it warm up)
