rear end rumble
When i start the engine i hear this loud rumble/knoking sound coming from the rear . This only at idle with the engine cold and in neutral ,once it starts to warm up it goes away.
You would think it's the torque tube bearings but if i go under the car seems to be coming from the gearbox.
Anyone have any ideas....

The tt IS spining allways if the clutch is engaged ,being in neutral does not change that ,it just means that no gears are engaged. The tt is not like a driveshaft ,the gearbox is in the back.
Exhaust is fine and fuel pump is new, anyway it's a different kind of noise,none of those could be causing it.
I think it might be my homemade solid gearbox mount ,i will check it these days.

The noise is present only when there is excessive vibration in the drivetrain like when the engine is cold. With the clutch depressed the noise immediately goes away .
