i thought i would add that it's probably the pilot bearing not the throwout bearing because the transmission input shaft is spinning at engine speed when in neutral with the clutch out. when the clutch is pushed in the transmission is detatched from the engine because the clutch is engauged. therfore the noise would go away because the transmission input shaft is no longer spining... if it was the throwout bearing it would make noise when pushing the clutch pedal in and pushing the throwout bearing against the pressure plate fingers because it would then have pressure applied to the bearing and spinning with the pressure plate. so i'd go with it all if your in there but make sure you replace the PILOT BEARING!!! good luck

Kid: i was wondering why everyone was saying throwout bearing. that should be under little to no pressure when the clutch is out, so it would be more prone to make noise when the clutch is in. sounds like your tranny is in pretty bad shape if it didn't have any fluid... i wouldn't trust that one as far as i could throw it
