2016 scion TC standard transmission
When clutch is out engine idling in neutral, I hear a bearing which I’m assuming is the dastardly input shaft bearing that’s an issue on the EB60 transmissions.
Should I spend the 5k to rebuild it and hope the updated bearing design doesn’t fail? And can I still drive it on my 50 mile each way commute? It has 76k miles on it.
When I do the work I’ll change out the clutch plate, pressure plate, throw out bearing, pilot bearing, and possibly the master and slave clutch cylinders. Is that overkill and am I missing anything?
Thanks for the help I just got this thing a week ago from a dealer. Sigh
The noise could simply be your pilot bearing. I would check that first before committing thousands of dollars to installing a rebuilt transmission.
Clutch is all the way out… so no not the pilot bearing. Besides to service the TC gotta drop the trans anyway. And in the TC the ISB is inside the trans case I am 90% sure
Noise when you push the clutch in is usually the throwout bearing.
