weird metal on metal grinding noise

today outta the blue my car started making this weird loud noise. it only does it when i have the clutch pressed in(shifting, decelerating etc) adn i have no idea why it's doing it! its a loud metal on metal noise. it also does it when i'm at a constant speed just letting off the gas, w/ out using the clutch. is it the through out bearing? something in the tranny?

thanks!

Re: weird metal on metal grinding noise

could it be something in my rear end sending a vibration up through my driveshaft?

Hard to tell, but from what you described, I had simular sounds, and it was bad TO bearing and my clutch disk disassembled itself in 2 parts. Next day it comletely gave up and car was towed home.
