Drivetrain Noise?

  1. re: 1997 SL-2 with 84,000 miles, standard trans

    I'm hearing the engine more since I've pulled the radio for repair -
    Specifically mechanical noise I'm noticing while coasting down a hill, and
    in gear, (don't remember it being this loud before). If you give it some
    throttle the noise stops, or if you put the clutch in the noise goes away
    too.

    So I'm thinking it's not the engine (timing chain), and is either the
    bearing on the clutch or maybe something in the transaxle.

    I know this is a reach since I'm not providing any sounds, and I don't think
    it's urgent (or else I'd be at the dealer), but I am curious if anyone has
    some input?

    TIA
