Well I started up my car tonight and I immediatley heard a slight scraping kinda grinding noise coming from the area of my clutch, as I proceeded to push the clutch in the sound got louder like somthing worn down in there and grinding. It shifts fine into all gears. Anyone have any idea of what it could be.??? All thoughts help. Thanks

Sounds like it could be the throwout bearing. How many miles on the clutch?

yeap.. sounds like a tob. I've got the same sound coming out of mine... oh well.. i read, that it will not affect your clutches ability to engage. However, i'm not sure. the sound is getting worse in my car, but it's not that bad, you can only really hear it when i'm driving next to a wall with the windows down... I'm just procrastinating, i don't wanna tear the sucker down just to change the tob, and the clutch is still holding. good luck man.
