Default Re: T5 tranny

is it a rhythmic knocking or an irregular knocking sound? if it's rhythmic chances are something got stuck in one of the gear teeth during the rebuild, or something loose got smashed into the gear, maybe one of the teeth chipped off. The reverse gear goes against an idler, so it's not constantly meshed like all the other gears. if it's intermittent something loose inside the trans i would guess.
