same as what?
sounds like the main bearing is on its way out.
if you strip it now you might just save it, if the main bearing breaks down the main shast will get chewed, thus making it float about and running the risk of chipping teeth off the input shaft.
still unless you wanna spend out on getting it fixed, and a rebuild kit should be around £50-£60 then scrap it and stick another on, but make sure its a good box.
