I've got a 98 2.5l w/ manual 5 speed with 260,000 miles. I've been noticing a weird ticking, I thought to myself that it could be the lifters ticking. So I replaced the oil and the ticking continued. Well one morning I start it up and hear this noise again, when I pressed the clutch pedal down and it stopped, to me it sounds like a typical TO Bearing symptom. But the next morning it didn't affect the noise. I'm wondering if I should do, should I replace the clutch, flywheel, to bearing, essentially the whole set. Or should I just buy a new/reman tranny? Have you guys experienced this problem before? I'm not noticing any difference in the way it shifts or drives.
