Hiya

I have a mk1 gs300 sport 97... If i am driving along and pull the shifter from d to 2 or 1 for engine braking i get a fairly big viberation and a tiny noise... Likewise if i come to a stop and put it in to Reverse and i also get the same vibration... It doesnt happen everytime but quite alot... I just wanted to know if anyone has ever heard or had the same problem and would know what it is or what to check...

For a start have you checked the transmission fluild level?

Thanks colin i will check the level i am waiting for a lexus cd should be here in the next few days... Thanks for both replies...

Ok man i checked the level it was ok.... Anything else you can think of that could be causing the problem...

Thanks

Worth checking the engine & transmission mounts. With the engine off & transmission in Park (so its locked), release the handbrake and rock the car back & forwards (only try this on level ground). Listen for strange noises.

HIya

The dipstick on for the gearbox oil is strange so i checked it again... On mine it says HOT and COOL point is when i checked it and it had not be started for a few days the oil was just under the top nic for HOT... If this make since to you what does that mean... I thought it should be down the bottom at the top nic of the COOL...

Oh yea there is no noise when i rocked it back and forth... Any other suggestions...
