Re: A problem!

A noise that happens on a manual transmission car in neutral that goes 
away when you step on the clutch is related to the manual trans. When 
you step on the clutch you disengage the trans from the motor and the 
input shaft stops turning. If it is a bad input bearing it stops 
making noise when it stops turning. Fist thing to do is to make sure 
that the trans is full with the correct oil. You might try changing it 
first but if the noise is noticeable you are probably looking at 
pulling the trans and clutch. Another possability is something out of 
adjustment in the shifter mechanism. If it shifts well that is a dim 
possability.
