Just trying to get a list of things together for the mechanic to take a look at.

Depending on how low on oil and for how many miles the damage could be very extensive or not too bad. From what I heard on your vid, the input shaft was turning (and whining) when you engaged the clutch so definitely some worn parts there. Output shaft, who knows? That was not turning while you're sitting there.

I don't want to mislead you, I'm not a trans. expert and it would take an expert to give you a better idea of the possible extent of the damage. To really know, the trans. needs to be opened up and inspected by a pro.

Good luck with your repairs.
