I noticed a new noise when I push the clutch in I get a faint scraping sound that goes away as soon as the clutch is released. The clutch appears to be working fine with no crunching of the gears. I suspect the release bearing may be the culprit can anyone confirm this and how long do you think it can hold out? :? Is it an engine out job?

Release bearing. Can do in car in an hour or so.
Buy a UK bearing, (RHP) the Jap ones are crap.. I got 3 days out of one, world record I reckon. :x
