    '01 MP3 Drivetrain Noise

    I have a 2001 Protege MP3. It has 100k miles on it and has been running great.
    Recently after replacing my starter, it's been making some weird drivetrain noise. I don't think the starter change has anything to do with it, but maybe something my mechanic friend did in the process. It now makes an odd grinding noise when I left off the gas or I am coasting. While I'm accelerating it's still there, but much more subtle. Also, I've noticed this morning that there seems to be a rattling noise coming from what sounds like right in front of me in the drivers seat. And I've noticed that the clutch is a bit sticky now. Can someone please help shed some light on this problem?

    Remove the inspection cover and check for signs of damage on the flywheel that should tell you if the starter isn't fully disengaging the fly wheel.
