Ok all you troubleshooters out there. 91 5spd
When idleing (stoplight etc)with car in neutral and clutch is out (disengaged) I am getting a rattling noise from engine or more likely the transmission/clutch area. Engage the clutch and it goes away.
Opinion #1 was throwout bearing problem
Opinion #2 was if it was the throwout bearing i would hear the noise with clutch engaged not disengaged.
Also car had to be topped up in clutch fluid twice but that problem went away in last two months. (curious self fix?) any thoughts?
