It is more like your former description of wobbly plates, a clack, clack, clack type of sound and once the clutch is all the way out and we are accelerating it disappears completely.

Also, the throwout bearing was replaced with the clutch a few months ago so that has been ruled out already.

Is that any further help?

Thanks for your reply, Hayden.
When you replaced the clutch, was the pilot bearing also addressed?

The noise was there prior to the new clutch, correct?

When the car is warm, at idle, is there a significant change in noise when the clutch is depressed? The single mass flywheels might amplify this effect, so might not be as useful for diagnosis, especially since the throwout bearing was replaced.

Time to look at the input shaft/pilot bearing side in my opinion, but please keep in mind that I'm not as experienced or knowledgeable with this car as most on here. You said all suggestions appreciated Maybe this will bump the thread and get noticed by someone who can help more. Best of luck!
