Clutch noise

When i first start the car in the morning, i put the clutch in and start it up, If i put the clutch in after that it makes this funny buzzing noise that goes away when i shift it into gear while in park or rev the engine. When the car is warmed up i dont have this problem. Any ideas. The clutch still grabs like a champ with no slipping.

only thing i can think of, is that it would be your throw out bearing, just getting a little chatter from her....

Sounds like a throw out bearing to me too

When I had my tranny rebuilt last fall, I changed out the clutch too. Stupid bearing chirped like crazy...it was annoying as hell. But eventually it broke in and the noise stopped.

With my luck it will just hang arund to irritate me for a while and pick a real bad time to die. Why the hell does it only do it when the cars cold. I ask cause i hear a lot of people complaining about the same thing with aftermarket clutches in their cars. I'm not sure if my clutch is stock or not. All i know is that it grabs like a champ for 94,000 miles.
