the transmission is automatic too?

common reason is that either there is excessive play in B3 (reverse multiple disc) or the thrust bearing in K1 making the grinding noise.

without actually hearing the noise, i cannot tell the exact reason.

in simple words, there must be an early sign of mechanical damage.
