Also when i was going up hill and starting back out in first i was getting almost a screeching noise coming from the transmission.
I was getting that ever since I drove on hills in San Francisco. Talked to my mechanic; basically, he said that the heat from the friction from riding on the clutch on the hills has changed the clutch material. In essence, it's hardened the clutch, causing that screeching noise.
I still get it from time to time, especially on hills, but from what he told me, it's nothing dangerous or bad on the transmission.
