I believe it is the clutch bearing. Any Idea how old is the clutch in your car? stock?

I remember I had that Issue when I bought it. My mechanic told me was the clutch bearing. I remplaced all that went away.... I might be wrong but...

About your problem must be a metal plate just make sure to listen well when you are reving.... not much
I can do here...

Chances are its your throw out bearing. Like Tito said, find out the age of your clutch and you should find out if its time for a change or not.

I've heard alot of quiet throw out bearing noise with our cars, even when the parts are brand new though the noise should not increase with RPMS.

Yeah most likely the throw out bearing. If your TOB is going chances are so is your clutch, no sense in taking your tranny down for a TOB and not replacing the clutch
Goodluck

yeah my car has 138k on stock clutch just kinda getting an idea to make sure whats what the problem is now i have a new problem i think a tooth broke off of mt axle and put a whole in my tranny i have a small hole on the bottom of it now this sucks think it is possible to weld a plate over hole if i check and everything is ok?

My car makes the same noise. It's like a rattling noise and its coming from the tranny area. I just put in a new ACT2600 clutch and Pressure plate/TO bearing. When I push the clutch in a certain amount the noise goes away and when I let go it comes back. Not sure what in the world it could be since the throw out bearing is brand new. The noise doesn't change with RPM, at least I can't tell if it does, only when I press in the clutch does it go away.
