clutch noise

Whenever I push the clutch in it makes a funny noise, but only for a couple of seconds and then it stops. If you sound out this noise "ffftfffftfffftffft", that is what it sounds like. My throw-out bearing is relatively new and has less than 2000mi on it. Any ideas?

It has to be the clutch. The transmission has never made any noises and it only happens with the clutch pushed in all the way. If you push the clutch almost all the way it doesn't make the noise.

Before I replaced the throw-out bearing it made a horrible squealing noise. It was like that when I bought it. I trailered it home and replaced the bearing the next day. The clutch and flywheel both looked to be fine. The clutch is supposedly only two years old. When I put in the new bearing in a year ago it was fine. This noise only started recently.

There is a pilot bushing/bearing in the end of the crankshaft that the input shaft slides into. This could be your noise.
