bearing noise???

Hope someone can help.

 

Every now and again when I go and start the car, there is a slight rattle coming from the engine bay more near to the back just under the dash area outside n unreneath. As soon as I press the clutch in and go in 1st or reverse the noise goes. So what I do is just dab the clutch halfway or to the point where the rattle goes just to see if its clutch releated.

 

Can this be a thrust bearing on the clutch??? if so how much of a job is it to change if I was to do it myself and approx cost of the bearing???

 

any other ideas of what it could be most welcome.

 

thanks

Sounds like the clutch thrust bearing.

I wouldnt worry too much as they are all known to be noisy

You'd have to remove the bellhousing/gearbox to access it which is quite a big job
