Getting the Wheeling Fever
When accelerating, under power, i get a squeak or moan...i thinks it's the clutch, or one of the bearings...how serious is this? like, can i wait a bit? i was going to be getting a new clutch anyways in the fall, but do i have to do it sooner now?

no-one?

it's more of a whine...like when going in reverse...the high pitch sound when going in reverse in a manual.

and when acelerating, there's a god-awful smell that comes with that whine...

Body Damage is Cool
Sounds kinda like a tire chirping when you let out in 1st? I think you're going to be needing one much sooner than fall, especially if you're smelling it just driving down the road.

it's more like a constant whine...like when going in reverse in a manual...just not as pronounced.

it's been getting progressively worse (especially the smell) the past couple of days, and i just don't have no time to do anything until next week.

the smell isn't clutch either...i know what burning clutch smells like and that aint it...and the clutch still works, doesn't grab or slip or anything...just whines and smells.

try this , and see if it works , while sitting with everythnig off , radio and such , and parked , slightly press down your clutch pedal , about a 1/4 inch to a half inch in i bet it stops doing it .

if thats the sound you heard , mine has been doing it for a long time , 30 or 40 thousand miles or so , i tohught it was my clutch so i replaced it and the throw out bearing and it still does it .
ive tried adjusting the pedal height , which in theory you think would work , but nope , it doesnt , and now i have to pull up on my clutch pedal slightly to get the cruise ot engage , all i have ot do to fix that is to readjust the pedal height or adjust the clutch button , which i tried to do , and i think mine is all the way out .

unless you are feeling it slip or smelling a buring clutch , i tihnk youll be allright .
