Tranny noise!!! ---

pppssssshhhhhtttttttttttt
Hey guys, lately I have been hearing a rattle/sorta grinding sound when my truck hits 35, right before it shifts.....normally light on the gas pedal. Today I even heard it at 35 when I was letting the truck roll to a stop at the light ( with NO gas ). Closest thing I can relate it to is a throwout bearing going bad on a manual transmission!!! Hahaha, so I am clueless. The tranny shifts VERY firm ; so I hope nothing major is about to happen. Thanks ---

ps. its really only noticable if I hear the echo bounce off a car I am passing or a wall ---

pps I just noticed it sounds like a heat shield shaking, but there is a grinding sound like something is rolling too , uhhh time to start the fun !!! ---

pull the pan and check for metal fragments. check your converter bolts to be sure they haven't backed out and be sure your starter isnt rubbing.
