Stretch: I think I've read your post about taking it to bits about 10 times already, and each time I get more courage to go all in! It seems relatively straight forward and for a few hundred more dollars I suppose you're right that it would be a rebuild. Fixing the parts that are somewhat "external" seemed safer than that brain with 50 springs!

Re-reading this thread I get a strange feeling that perhaps things aren't what they seem! The problem at the beginning was one of gears not engaging and now there's a problem with RPM related noises. Is there anything else that might be transmission related going on?
As for the thread you are talking about I assume you mean the 722.303 one =>

If so please note this is just taking something to bits - there isn't any information about rebuilding it. You need to get hold of a manual for that.

It depends on parts availability - I guess most people could rebuild a transmission in a weekend.
But do you really want to do this?
One of your problems might be fixed by changing the B2 piston (if that link I posted is correct). A rebuild might be overkill.

At the top of the thread I started (link above) there are some links to part diagrams. I can tell you where to go and buy your parts in the US but the name will get XXXed out here!

...and no, I wouldn't want to take it out twice after fixing part of the problem just for it to create more problems! Sound advice.

The .315 is very similar to the 722.303 - the biggest difference I have found is in the tail cone section where there's an "electronic" speedometer facility on the .303 whereas the .315 has a mechanical one (with a different lubrication system). That's about it.
