My DT4 is making an insanely loud grinding sound coming from the gearbox when it's in neutral. The motor runs great otherwise, I basically have to cold start it in neutral and immediately slap it into gear to warm up while. I've pulled apart the gearbox more times than I can count and I can see the light scoring on the main gear from this happening, but it's not too bad yet.

I've looked everywhere, including the other post on here about a screaming gearbox. This one has me stumped. Has anyone else experienced this?

Ive checked the gearbox against the factory service manual and all the parts are there and look good.
