    Stock Clutch - Super Faint Clutch Noise - Normal??

    So this might just be me being parinoid but I hear some extremely faint clutch noise while sitting at idle in neutral. The noise sounds exactly like the noise you hear from an aftermarket clutch with a light weight fly wheel but just extemely quiet. Goes away when I push in the clutch. Honestly don't know if I heard it before or not but I had the radio off and it was really quiet. Stock Clutch has 101K on it so it's probably due soon. Thanks for any input.

    Hey man, I had the same thing with the stock clutch since I got my car at 60k miles. I could never figure out what it was until I changed to the aftermarket clutch and flywheel which accentuated the gear rattle.

    Thanks for the reply. I wasn't having any other issues with it but noticed it suddenly. Can't hear it outside of the car just on the inside. I didn't notice it till I hit the top of speed bump hard so I was super parinoid after that.

    I think what you're describing is normal. I remember thinking the exact same thing a few years ago and even did it front of my mechanic. If you can make a video of it, would help.
