If your oil pan is out of shape this could cause the noise your hearing. You will need to change it out soon as possible before metal shavings enter into the oil system.

Take a close look at the bottom of the inside of the pan, your looking for metal shavings,(silver or brass color. brass color is a bad sign) looking for signs of the rotating mass hitting the pan(silver). If this is the case change the Pan and oil pump. Clean the oil pickup tube screen.

What type of tranny do you have? auto, Manual? These sounds can travel thru the pan.

Auto- loose flywheel bolts can back out. or something hitting the flywheel

Manual- pilot bearing makes noise when the clutch is engaged. (flywheel turning, input shaft of tranny not turning) throwout bearing make noise when the clutch is engaged also but can make a noise if the clutch is not adjusted right. (throwout bearing touching the clutch fork)

okay well im gunna drop the oil pan and look for that today, also i have a manual tranny. if its the pilot bearing or throughout bearing i shouldnt hear the squeeling when it is just idling in my driveway right, only when i push down on the clutch. i think its something to do with my oil pan but well see thanks alot for the help guys

ps: if it is because the clutch isnt adjusted right how would i find that out and how do i readjust the clutch so it doesnt make the noise anymore. thankS !
