Grinding manual transmission
so on my way to work today i pulled the transmission out of fourth gear and put it in neutral. While in neutral, theres a little play in the shifter so it has some wiggle room. As i relaxed the shifter it started grinding as if i was grinding while going into a gear. I pushed the clutch pedal a few time s and a few seconds later it was gone. It hasnt happened again and i cant make it happen on my own. Should i be worried?

Well, I was trying to do it so I can narrow down what could be causing it. Was wondering if the clutch was disengaging, or if the shifter is getting too sloppy and I need to replace the shifter seat and socket.

Never been replaced as far as I know. Is the shifter seat THAT important? I thought once it's worn away it just causes lots of play and sloppy shifting. It's not that big of an issue, right?
