If you press in the clutch and the sound goes away the clutch and pressure plate may need to be changed. If it is still on OEM and you haven't changed it and do not know the previous history of the clutch with the vehicle, I would think a new clutch and pressure plate would fix it.

Just copy and paste the link into your post. Don't need to embed the video in the post. Just a link to where people and click and view

Okay. I understand the noise at idle and why. Somewhat. What you mentioned above that when you press in the clutch the sound is supposed to go away.

Why does the sound go away pressed in and not out?
Mine makes the noise regardless. What is going bad?

You said if you press the clutch in and the sound goes away then something is bad. So you're saying the fact that when I press the clutch in and the noise doesn't change that my components are okay?

Sorry if I've read this backwards or misinterpreted. Please clarify. My clutch is week under heavy shifting at high rpms. I'll replace what's needed and change the fluid. I'd still like to understand this. Atleast so I can explain it to my buddies who ask what the hell is wrong with your car lol.
