I've noticed occasionally, well...more often than not, when i take my foot off the clutch and idle at the stop lights that i get what i initially thought was valve clatter, but its ONLY when my foot is off the clutch. Has anyone else had this problem, if so how was it fixed, or should i just not stress over it?

 

I had a Mustang that did this and it was the trowiut bearing in the clutch.

 

I have clutch problems too. I can feel a vibration in the peddle as I release it. I also hear the noise coming up from under the floor sort of like ticking but louder. I took it in to the dealer yesterday (Sat.) and had thier transmission tech drive it. He said he thought it might be a throw-out bearing or pressure plate. I have an appointment to have it fixed next Saturday. I suspect they will have it for a while. I'll let everybody know what the problem was if there is a site to post to.
