Hiya guys So, I was getting my Sienna ready for todays' session (maybe), and I have noticed a problem. It started last weekend though, when I was packing it away. It was all jammed up, and not spinning right. I took it apart, cleaned it up, and then put it back away.... I was planning on getting it serviced but didn't. This weekend it's came out, and has also been playing up. It makes a weird clunking noise when I reel. I took at couple videos so everyone can get a better idea. I believe if I take a certain part off, and then oil something inside that, it will fix up. Problem is, I don't know if that would work and I don't know how to. I was just wondering if anyone could give me a tip to what might be happening and what I can do to fix it up. It's not the reel handle, but the little plate ( I believe the side plate) isn't screwing on properly. Photos/vids - The little wing nut on the second photo is what I think I need to take off... And then clean up inside that part of the reel. Cheers Hamish IMG_0471.MOV IMG_0472.MOV

I recently been learning about spinning reels and how they work so i open up a few cheap crappy ebay reels to look at them and how the basics of a fishing reel worked once i got good i started working out and how and were everything goes and works . I opened up my cazna not to do anything but to purely just look at the guts and gears without touching them . I just seen the gears with a little bit of grease without enough grease . And this is bad because metal grinding with metal under load with chip the drive gear so i will picking up some penn reel grease and oil to fix this problem. And also the ball bearings had grease on then for some reason . So i will add a bit of oil on them when i get the penn grease and oil . Has anyone heard of this . I’ve haven’t used the reel and the only thing i have to done is a put a drop of oil on the 2 ends of the ball bearings before opening. Just by unscrewing the handle and putting a drop of some on the ball bearings. I don’t think that would influence that though because it was only a drop or to not enough to wash away the grease on all the gears which i would never do . The sienna was also like this when i opened it up . But luckily its just a simple fix with a bit of grease and oil the reel will be running in order to prevent gears and metal grinding corroding and breaking. Just thought i mind tell you guys just in case your cheaper shimano reels are not running as smooth this could be the problem
