Default Help - Grinding on take off

Fixed this problem...turned out to be I used a pilot bushing when I had the engine out. It failed quickly, I replaced it with the GM roller bearing pilot bearing

Throw out bearing if the noise appears as you press the clutch pedal in and disappears when you release it....

Its the other way around. There is no noise on the way down, and noise at the top of the uptake as it comes out.

No noise while driving in gear.

Did you ever figure this out?

I've only had my car a week but it does this in first and some times in second when it's hot. Worse if I'm on an incline. Harendous damn noise just for a second as I release the clutch. It's fine when it's cool.
