well i was sitting in my car waiting for my next class and had the car running, and there was a ticking noise. at first i thought it was my shifter but it wasn't and i happened the push the clutch pedal and the noise went away. i did this several times and it did the same thing. i had the clutch and throwout bearing replaced 14,000 miles ago. what could the noise be?

 

throw out bearing most likely. Even though it was replaced 14000 miles ago it does take a lot of abuse. But head under your car make sure everything is tight...

 

Sure sounds like the throwout bearing to me...

 

how long do you think the throwout bearing will last? not that i plan on driving it. putting the car away for the winter tomarow.

 

...as the way it sits, I've seen them go a while...as stated above, pop off the dust cover and make sure all it tight....should last more then 14k miles IMO, but maybe it's a cheapo! Otherwise, wait til spring...

 

cha!!!

 

it could be a cheapo, a dealership did the work cause it was under warranty.
