Default Weird loud noise from clutch. Please help

Please watch the youtube video, from 13 -19 seconds as the clutch is being released it makes that sound, doesn't do it always but its getting more more often. If someone recognizes as of what it could be.



Thanks

I have on 05 with 61k miles, sounds the same. Usually first thing in the morning pulling away from house. Does it maybe a couple of clutch engagements, then goes away, presumably after warm up. Dealer can't replicate. Any help would be appreciated.

Forgot to mention, you can feel the clutch vibrate with the noise but the clutch does not slip.

Worn throw out bearing would be my guess.

Never heard that before. You should always say at the very least year and mileage on car, if you bought it new or used, and if it started doing the noise all of a sudden, or after an incident or service.

If pedal is vibrating, something might be warped in there. Any drag racing? Or recent overheating? Post more details man. Good luck.

Thanks for the help thus far.
No drag racing, I drive three miles to work each day.
No incidents, repairs or any other instantaneous reason for the nose. Only feel the vibration in the clutch when also hearing the nose,otherwise a smooth clutch. Owned the car since 2006. Perfect maintenance record. Thanks
