I have just hunted the forum for noisy 6speed gearboxes in 2003 VYSS, and can't find any mention! Mine is only noticeable on windy roads, where I'm in low gears for a few K's. Is this a known problem? I've only got 3 months warranty left!http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=12#
Without a doubt they wont touch your gearbox unless it stops altogether. Why don't you investigate some good quality replacement oil like REDLINE or the likes. :)

that grumbling noise you hear one way to tell if there is something wrong with your input shaft bearings because it should only be noisy when you lift the shifter up a little bit

Re: original post. I figured they would have bad hearing when it came to hearing the noise, Mine is quiet in neutral, maybe there is a differnt problem with yours?
