Re: Oops, was I suppose to grease it?

The noise does not change when I push the clutch in or out, does seem to go quite the higher the rpms . last note is I may have neglected to grease the pilot bearing for the transmission, its a bearing and not a bushing but nonetheless I'm not sure whether I greased it or not for the snout of the input shaft, problem?.
Referencing your highlighted statement.. When the clutch is engaged, the transmission input shaft rpm is the same as the flywheel and engine rpm.. any noise originating with the pilot bearing during this condition will not occur.. Look elsewhere, the noise is not coming from the pilot bearing...
