Just after some advice or knowledge of mini/ metro clutches, I’ve got a noise coming from the clutch area and the only way I can describe it is it’s like a kind of rubbing come scraping noise, it’s in every gear and more noticeable when letting off of the accelerator but completely goes when the clutch is pressed, I’ve looked it up and all the mini forums are describing similar issues and saying it’s the idler gear bearings but say you hear a rattling or knocking noise and as I say mine is more like a rubbing.
To me it doesn’t sound like a bearing but I’ve only had experience with wheel bearings and things like that so don’t really know what a gearbox bearing sounds like.
Any help or advice will be much appreciated.
Ps the engine has been stood for over 3 years and I was putting it down to a rusty clutch but it’s not going.
Before I get people saying I should of changed it before I put the engine in I would like to say I know☹️.
Thanks in advance.
