Strange noise - thrust bearing?

(1/2) > >>

Martin:
Hi guys,

Hope somebody can help.

Today something in the transmission started making a chirping noise. It only does it when I come off the throttle and it stops if I dip the clutch or apply a little throttle. The chirping repeats at a rate proportional to how fast I'm driving, not the engine speed.

I'm thinking it's the thrust bearing. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,
Martin

I'd second that diagnosis. I would expect a clutch release bearing to make noise when the clutch is depressed.
