Interesting Tranny Issue - Throwout Bearing? Options

[Coomer]

Lately my tranny has been making noise. When the car is in neutral with the clutch pedal out, the car will often make a sort of soft repetitive clacking noise. If I let off the clutch pedal very softly however, the noise is much quieter. And the noise disappears when I push in the clutch or when I am in gear.

Does this sound like a problem involving the throwout bearing? I had this problem before, so we replaced the throwout bearing when I put in a new clutch, and now I've got the same problem again.

get a stethicope for cars at sears. you can put it right on the tranny and hear whats going on in there... i had a noise like that and had my clutch and TO replaced. now im on a new clutch and you know what i learned....clutches make noise! lol so dont worry about it unless it becomens and issue where you cant drive the car, or the sounds gets crazy loud.
