heard a metal on metal sound when
0:01
reversing it's a sign of trouble this
0:03
sound means parts are rubbing against
0:05
each other it's important to find and
0:07
fix the problem before it gets worse
0:08
this guide will help you find the cause
0:10
and fix the issue it covers all possible
0:13
problems and how to solve them this way
0:15
you can stop the metal on metal sound
0:21
reversing typical culprits behind
0:24
reverse gear grinding the harsh grinding
0:26
sound in Reverse usually comes from a
0:28
few main problems low fluid level
0:30
without enough oil parts rub and scrape
0:33
worn clutch plates when the friction
0:35
surfaces wear out they slip and chatter
0:37
damaged gear teeth cracks or
0:39
misalignment cause grinding when gears
0:41
mesh bad bearings seized or collapsed
0:43
bearings make gear and shaft rotation
0:46
noisy faulty parking pole a step parking
0:48
pole creates drag when it shouldn't
0:50
General looseness loose Parts clunk
0:52
together pay attention to the noise to
0:54
find the problem cause noise details
0:56
when occurs other Clues low fluid
0:58
metallic scraping entry reverse only
1:00
leaks low dipstick worn clutches
1:03
intermittent chatter shifting to reverse
1:05
gradual onset damage gears constant
1:07
grinding reversing and drive gears may
1:09
feel loose bad bearings rumbling and
1:11
whine any gear engagement vibrations
1:14
stuck PA dragging noise mostly reversing
1:17
parking brake releases fully General
1:19
looseness clunks all gears Mount cracks
1:21
missing bolts by analyzing the sounds
1:23
and behaviors you can pinpoint a problem
1:26
risks of dismissing metal on metal sound
1:28
when reversing ignoring the grind
1:29
finding noise in Reverse can lead to big
1:32
problems worn clutches can cause
1:34
dangerous slippage chip gear teeth can
1:36
break down into metal shavings seized
1:38
bearings can lock the transmission loose
1:40
Parts can wear down faster don't ignore
1:42
the noise fixing the metal on metal
1:44
sound when reversing is crucial how to
1:46
pinpoint the cause to find the source
1:48
follow a systematic approach scan for
1:50
any stored diagnostic trouble codes test
1:53
drive and all gears to find the issue
1:55
check fluid levels and condition inspect
1:57
gears splines and synchronize iers for
2:00
damage rotate shafts test bearings and
2:03
move clutches to feel for roughness
2:05
ensure loose mounts or components are
2:07
torqued to Speck adjust bands and
2:09
linkage if needed thorough
2:10
troubleshooting helps find and fix the
2:12
faulty part fixing low transmission
2:14
fluid levels if grinding started after a
2:16
fluid leak low levels might be the cause
2:19
just top up the fluid and determine if
2:21
the leak comes from a fitting gasket or
2:23
housing crack use UV die to find the
2:25
leak Source if unsure check fluid color
2:27
for signs of burning La fluid means
2:30
there's an internal problem consider
2:31
changing the filter and fluid to clean
2:33
out metal particles from gear wear don't
2:35
just keep adding fluid find out why it's
2:37
low to stop leaks and grinding
2:39
rebuilding worn transmission clutches
2:41
clutches that slip and make a grinding
2:43
sound need fixing take apart the clutch
2:46
packs and check the Steels and friction
2:48
plates for wear and damage replace any
2:50
worn out plates and damag apply Pistons
2:53
hone the clutch drums and or cylinder
2:55
boes to get a good grip flush out the
2:57
contaminated fluid and replace filters
3:00
and gaskets like new brake pads
3:02
refurbished clutch plates ensure
3:04
reliable grip and engagement repairing
3:06
damaged gears gears that are chipped
3:08
cracked or misaligned need fixing
3:10
replace any gears with too much wear or
3:12
broken teeth check the mating shafts for
3:14
damage and realign if needed make sure
3:17
all parts are securely mounted and
3:19
tightened right don't just swap out
3:20
damaged gears you must also fix the
3:22
underlying issues replacing worn
3:24
bearings grinding from worn bearings
3:27
needs new ones find the source input
3:29
shaft output shaft extension housing
3:31
remove and check bearings and races for
3:33
damage put in new bearings and races
3:36
check the shafts for damage double check
3:38
the bearing clearances too loose or too
3:40
tight is bad don't ignore bearings as a
3:42
hidden grinding cause their wear is
3:44
often slow until it fails suddenly
3:46
fixing sticking parking pows a parking
3:49
pole that sticks and doesn't fully
3:51
disengage will grind against the
3:53
transmission output gear try flushing
3:55
debris and regreasing the Paul pivot
3:57
Points check the park Rod adjustment and
3:59
actuation replace worn Paul pins and
4:02
springs as needed make sure the shifter
4:04
is fully in park relying only on the
4:06
parking brake can cause Paul problems
4:08
prevention is the best medicine prevent
4:10
premature transmission failure through
4:12
regular maintenance service transmission
4:14
fluid and filters regularly to remove
4:17
contaminants fix leaks right away to
4:19
prevent grinding damage from low fluid
4:21
let gear changes complete before
4:23
accelerating or reversing to avoid Clash
4:26
shifting scan for trouble codes to catch
4:28
issues before they get worse with
4:30
regular fluid care and safe driving you
4:32
can avoid costly gear damage don't brush
4:35
off troubling transmission noises
4:36
ignoring a brief reverse gear grinding
4:39
sound can lead to expensive repairs stay
4:41
ahead by quickly finding and fixing the
4:43
problem whether it's worn Parts low
4:45
fluid or something more serious quick
4:47
action and regular maintenance can stop
4:49
grinding and quiet down the noise stay
4:52
alert diagnose correctly and act fast to
4:54
protect your transmission and wallet for
