    Thrust bearings usually only make the noise when you press the clutch pedal.

    clutch release bearing. If its only doing it when the clutch is engaged then i would have thought it was that. Unless you'vechipped a few teeth in the box? which would be unlucky!

    Does it only make the noise when accelerating?
    If so could it not just be an engine mount!
