[QUOTE="phased, post: 33170, member: 414"] The first thing I would check would be the heat shields around the catalytic converter and/or muffler. You can stick a large screwdriver or prybar between the shield and the converter and give the shield a little bend. Might have to do it in a couple of places. This usually will "stiffen" it enough to stop the noise. It can really sing to you. It is really hard to guess what it is without actually hearing it. But this is quick and cheap to try. As far as being the clutch?? Could possibly be the throwout bearing rattling. Or loose springs in either the clutch plate or pressure plate. Like I said...hard to diagnose without hearing it. I hope it is something simple. Richard [/QUOTE]
