rattle sound with video.

this is a video of the sounds my car is making. Clutch in it goes away clutch out it comes back.

I am assuming that it has something to do with the pressure plate or the throw out bearing.

I have the same problem, just a little different.

I can hear it when I stop at a traffic light, once I push in the clutch and release, then it goes away.

Hopefully someone will shed some light on this.

Edit: Mine's gen 1, 2005 MCS.

Skooterblink,
What year and model is it? I have a similair issue with my '09 S. The dealer says it's normal. I'm still waiting for it to break.

I heard it is serious enough to stop driving the car and get it fixed immediately for a lot of cash. As far as I know extended warranties don't cover clutches. My car is an 05 s with 47000 miles.

Being an 05 it would be best if you moved this thread over to the 1st gen section. You are now in the 2nd Gen forums.
