    Weird/Strange Noise When Clutching Out

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I don't know how many miles is on the clutch, but the previous owner has stated that he changed it about 2 years ago when I made the purchase.

    I can't really describe the sound/noise I'm hearing. It happens when I'm in neutral going into 1st gear only. The noise sounds like metal scraping each other or like a low screeching sound. It's not a grinding noise either. This sound happens when I'm slowly clutching out when I'm in first gear.

    This sound occurs more when the car is in an uphill. Any ideas what it might be? The sound goes away once the car starts moving. Only happens in first gear.

    The thing is, it only happens on "some" occasions.... It comes and goes, but when I'm on the road for more than 2+ hours the noise is more frequent. And its more frequent when the car is uphill.
