I have a 1990 Patrol 4.2 diesel.When it is idling in neutral there is a distinct rattle coming from gearbox/clutch area.If revs are increased to 1000 rpm or over rattle disappears, aswell if you put your foot on the clutch.The problem seems to be alot more prominent when cold and virtually disappears when hot."Can anyone tell me if its perhaps the clutch rattling or the gearbox and if the clutch is about to give up"?
The vehicle has done 315000 Kms.It also has that annoying vibration when under load between 700-1100 rpm, more so than 3 other patrols I have been in.(infact one 1988 model had absolutely none!)
