generally speaking if the noise dissapears with your foot on the clutch it indicates a fault with the gearbox input/primary shaft bearing which could involve complete strip down of box in some cases. the reason the noise dissapears is that by putting the clutch down you are removing the load from the gearbox (transmission-US) hope this helps robb
