weird sound with clutch???!!
2 months ago, i got a new clutch...
Everything has been fine.
3 days ago, i got some petrol, drove it normally and all of a sudden, i got the kind of whistle sound!
The sound started low and then faster when i drove or rev hard, when rpm when down, it got a bit louder.
If in neutral the sound carries on, but if i put my foot down on the clutch, the sound stops.
I put my AC on, and i think it helps a little with the sound getting low a bit, I am really scared, only had this car for 5 months =(
When I've been driving for about 25mins.. when the car is moving, but i am NOT accelerating, it even whistle when i am not pushing the gas!
PLEASE HELP, ANY ADVICE? I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO =(

Does the pitch and volume of the whistle change based on vehicle speed?
Is it always present except when the clutch pedal is depressed?

yea!
When the car is moving it does that but when I am not accelerating whilst the car is moving (coasting?), the whistle sound comes on but when i push the gas, it stops.
when i come to a traffic light stop and put the car in neutral, the whistle sound comes back.

When i start the car it does not come on, when the car is warmed up its comes on and when the car is hot, its loud. Because its loud after i go fast (55mph) or redline (gear 2,3)

Go back to the "I got a new clutch" part. Who did the clutch job? OEM or aftermarket? If someone just slapped a disk in there then they where asking 4 trouble.
