Auto Mechanics' Advise Please...?
I drive a 98 chevy s10 stick. I just took it in for a full tune up at the beginning of July. It ran like a top. I took it for a 30 minute drive and encountered 10 minutes of gravel road. A week later (I don't drive much), the transmission is sounding funny.
When I start to make a turn, I down shift to second while pressing in on the clutch. It's now sounding like I'm grinding the gears when the clutch is depressed fully. It doesn't make this noise shifting from first to second, only riding in second while depressing the clutch.
Could there be something lodged in the transmission, maybe need fluid or could it be going out. It's never happened before and started abruptly. It's ok if I have the gear in neutral, but not in second with the clutch depressed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I love my truck and can't really afford to take it back to the shop if it's something simple.
hey bandit, how do you adjust the clutch?

Ummm, you are going to have a tough time adjusting the s10 clutch (there is no adjustment with this hydraulic system).
I am leaning towards release bearing, but you say it only happens in second. Could be an internal gear issue. Manual transmissions are usually bullet proof, so I would have this looked at. Definitely clutch or tranny.

try adjusting the clutch and see if you can change gears better. sounds like the clutch is,nt releasing all the way from the flywheel when you push the clutch pedal in.
