Does it throw a check engine light or anything. could be like the coil packs and spark plugs.

tell me if there is any other things that goes wrong or you hear different.

The pilot/thowout bearing in the tranny might be bad. It only happend to me when i was engaging the clutch from a stop to start moving in my old rx7. The car also shook a little while doing that.

anytime they have to take your tranny appart for something is expensive.. Not that what i described is your problem.. but if it is, then it would be expensive. can you feel any pulsing in your clutch pedal when it happens?? it happend for me only from a stop too when i was letting off on the clutch to go.

If it's kind of like a dripping noise I have the same problem. Been like that ever since I bought the car (3.5mo ago). Took it to the stealership and mechanic couldn't hear it. Said its probably nothing. But for me it doesn't happen always. But do you always hear it?
