Trans issues with a T5.. Metal rubbing noise???

When your not the gas it has metal rubbing noise and sometimes a clunkiest noise under turning. It's not a grinding noise more like metal sliding together. Any ideas, trans mount maybe? What could it be?

In the gas you don't hear it, you can kinda hear it in neutral also when taking turns


Any ideas will help.
Thanks

What did you see when you got up under the car and looked at the place the noise seems to be coming from? Ican't help much, it's a little too far from your monitor; I can't quite see up under there just now from my POV.

I didnt see anything out of the norm but my car is low and it's raining so when I can jack it up I'll give more info. I don't see anything wrong though:

my e-brake cable was sagging on my driveshaft causing the noise you describe a few years back....

don't forget , if you are jacking up the car from the ground,,the driveshaft along with everything else moves up and it's not always easy to see it close or touching the e-brake cables...i installed a spring to pull the center e-brake cable and adjust towards the body so it keeps it up and away from the driveshaft but won't break when pulling and using the e-brake,,,it rubs very slightly when i hit a big bump(canadian roads suck!!)..because i have lowered springs..but it fixed the noise...
