Thumbs down kll clutch noise

i have a 95 sc300. When i disengage the the clutch i sometimes hear a rattling noise. When i engage the clutch the noise stops. I have a brand new clutch. The noise was present on the old clutch as well.

its a normal sound on some of the w58's (especially 95+) it does it on mine. has something to do with the pull vs push type clutch setup. I had my throw-out bearing replaced didn't change the sound at all. its like a very slight whirring noise until you push in the clutch and then it slows down and dissapears until you let out the clutch again, most noticeable in neutral. there is a whole thread on this issue.

Default clutch noise

i have a ls460 2008 and i had trouble wiith shifting gears. the rpm would go to 5 or 6 and then you could hear the clutch release and the car would lurch forward at a fast speed
