LT77 noise ? - Land Rovers Only

s3landy · 06-25-2007, 11:55 PM

Have you ever heard what sounds like a handful of gravel being thrown up under the truck while driving? It happens at no particular time, clutch in or out. I suspect the clutch but am not sure. I drive a 1991 110 with a 200 tdi and an lt77.Everthing runs smooth and quiet otherwise.

Thanks

Mike

If the noise is present with the clutch depressed, it isn't likely to be in the gearbox. It could be the throwout bearing (They're mostly plastic)
Do you have a catalytic converter ? The noise you're describing sound exactly like the noise coming from my RH cat. Matrix is broken.

It doesn't seem to matter if the clutch is pressed or not but it has happened more often coming to a stop with the clutch in. I don't have a cat and it happens fast and doesn't last long enough to rev the engine or press the clutch even. I took the truck out yesterday and it never did it at all, so weird !
