For some reason when I shift from 3rd to 4th I hear a loud "clicking" noise, any ideas?

While the clutch is engaged, and I move the shifter into 4th, I hear a large click, and then release clutch...

Inside the car...could be the shifter/cable hanging up/catching...under the hood...shift levers fouling something or an 'internal' trans problem.....

I'd establish if it does it when the car is stationary,with and without the engine running first...

Strange I have sorta the same thing..although my clicking/tapping I hear in the 3000-4000 RPM range,
only under load... I'm fearing the worst hoping for the best...Only clicks when engine is warmed up...

Terry, I did the "test", it doesn't click when the vehicle is not in motion, and when I feather the knob from 3rd to 4th it doesn't click either. I guess what I'm going to start doing is to be a little softer w/ the shifter [I'm new to a manual transmission, as you can tell].
