Couple of weeks ago, the gearbox on my micra went bang, rattle rattle and proceeded to eject all the gearbox oil. Did still drive though.
Have finnaly had the chance to pull the box off today and I'm not quite sure what failed.
Something has hit the flywheel causing it to grind around the bellhousing and take a chunk out of the gearbox causing the oil to come out it damaged the starter motor housing.
There where 3 small bit's of metal in there, flatish pieces that seem like a coke can type material.
Flywheel looks ok, clutch has a scratch (gouge) across it's case.
Any ideas? need's a new box but what about everything else?
And some pics for looking:

for the flywheel to do that either the box has come unbolted from the block and was flapping about or the crank has been flapping about or the flywheel is loose
