Hi Guys!

My 2.6 petrol Pajero has got a wierd rough Whirring noise coming from the gearbox / Clutch I think... If I put the clutch in, it stops, but if the clutch is out while in neutral, 1,2,3 or 5, it makes the noise... nothing though in 4th.

Any Ideas?

Also, just wondering what the max RPM of this engine is... Mine tops out at 4000, which can be a bit of a problem if you need to overtake. It hasnt really bothered me as in general it is going well and I dont drive it like a racing car. Just wondering if this is normal, and if not, what the reason could be.

Motor has almost 280000km, but still seems strong!

Any help will be appreciated.
