clio sport 172 rumbling on deceleration in 2nd and 3rd

[Dub]

Hey guys!

Im hoping someone can help me with this problem as its driving me crazy :banghead:

When decelerating (more noticeable in 2nd and 3rd) there is a rumbling noise and can be felt through the gear stick, any help would be much appreciated!

could be worn gearbox mount and/or a loose stud that goes though it.
the exhaust touches the subframe and when in 2/3rd about about 4-5k rpm it buzzzes

Thanks for all your advice guys. turns out to be one of the bearings inside the box. looks like its rebuild time... sigh :quiet:

Welcome to the forum Dub, sorry to hear about the gearbox.

just to let you all know just in case someone finds themselves in the same boat, it turned out to be the input shaft bearing. thanks for all the help and advice!
