Need help on gear problem

[ngks84]

Dear all professional sifu here,

I'm driving a Satria 1.3M year 2001 fuel injection model. MMC ECU.

Recently when I changing my gear from N -> 1st gear, there is a strange coming from the engine side, or maybe gearbox, I don't know.

When I'm about to release the clutch, changing to 1st gear at around 1-1.5K rpm, there is a "grr grr grr" sound, seem like some joint is loose. After going to 2K rpm or higher, the sound gone.

This won't happen on other gear ratio as normally the engine stay at 2K rpm pr higher.

*I ask few workshop, they can't seem to answer me, only tell me that my car is old, that's why got funny sound.

Anyone out there know what is happening, or can recommend me a reliable workshop? I'm in Puchong area.

Thanks in advance.

have you check your engine mounts? if the mountings are worn, it also produce the sound at low rpm..

Yeah, the engine mount just change last year, original part from Proton, so i think that's not the problem.

Lol, I too always believe in checking the basics first rather than the more complicated things.
