Is it a loud noise or radio off to hear it?

May be a baring or somthing?

you do need to have the radio off but if you lift the bonnet you can hear it a lot. it doesnt do it all the time though. i thought it might just be a bearing. hope it is

I take it you have a Civic?

Is it like a creaking noise that seems to go when the car is warm?

If so, my Civic has the exact same problem and i have heard it on several other civics, it is apparently the release bearings in the gear box which requires a new clutch kit.

I have had the noise for approx 2 years and it hasn't got much worse, it will probs outlive the car, but i am going to get mine done anyways.

I have prices of around £200 to fix this problem on my car.

cheers for that. its when you havnt got the clutch pressed in, then when you press it in it stops. its a hard noise to describe but it sounds like the same thing you said. just worried me coz it only started about 2 weeks ago.

If its a slight noise then dont worry, if it is audible from inside the car then maybe its time for a new clutch....

Clutches vary in price, civic will be approx £150 - £200
