Default Clicking during 2nd gear (Manual)

The clutch still engages second gear but during 2nd gear it makes a deep clicking sound that you can hear and then feel in the shifter. I wanna know if my clutch is going bad or not. Any knowledge will be great! Thanks!

If it's only in second gear it's most likely either your syncro or gear itself. First I would start by changing your transmission fluid and filter. Royal Purple is all I use for drivetrains when I can, and I'd contact your local Ford for the filter. Changing the fluid will do one of two things.

1. It could fix the problem completely, or at least hide it for a length of time
2. Not solve the problem at all

In case of scenario 2 you're looking at rebuilt transmission, or doing a swap. The swaps are relatively easy on this car and there's even a walkthrough in our tech section. Good Luck!

Edit: Oh, and excuse my manners, welcome to the forum!
