Message	So far from what I've read thus far it's either the throw out bearing or pilot bushing. It's not a squeek, or a whine, but like an angry goose squaling....very loudly. The noise happens AS the clutch is gripping, or as the pedal is being released. Once it has been fully released the noise goes away. Have only encountered it in first gear or reverse. Once I get going it doesn't happen. There is no noise in neutral. How much labor is involved in replacing the TOB/Pilot bushing? Good time to get a new clutch? Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
