    does the sound come one when you put the clutch in? sounds like a throw out bearing but from my experience it sound like a light grinding/humming

    throw out would go away when he puts the clutch in. it only happens when you take off now like when your sitting in neutral in idle

    The classic symptom of a worn throw-out bearing is a whirring or growling sound when applying the clutch pedal, which goes away when releasing the pedal. Premature wear of the throw-out bearing can occur when there is insufficient clutch play, resulting in a throw-out bearing that spins continuously. If the bearing fails, it may seize and quickly wear the fingers of the pressure plate. The throw-out bearing does not require routine maintenance, but should be replaced when clutch replacement becomes necessary. Consult a professional technician to determine whether the throw-out bearing or other parts of the clutch assembly need replacement

    'm just trying to diagnose from my experience and what I have read.

    cant be that then. it happens when i release the clutch .. and sometimes continues while im moving.. sometimes louder when i turn.. i know my P/S pump is going but i dont think that is this noise because it happens when i let out the clutch.
