Hey guys, I have this grinding noise coming somewhere from my tranny when the car is cold and this noise only goes away after the car is warmed up and driven. Also, even if its cold, and I press the clutch it will go away as long as the clutch is pressed, this sounds very annoying and also makes me stay in the car and hold the clutch down till the car is warmed up because I cant stand it making the sound. What can this be?

Ahh...That sucks, I read somewhere that it can be the pivot fork or something that may need to be oiled, I guess it is the throwout bearing. Its freakin in the 30's here its too cold to pull the tranny. I might bring it by the shop and use their lift or something. As long as I hold the clutch in until the car warms up and the noise goes away, its not damaging anything right?
Do it soon though when the tb goes out it goes out for good, you won't have anything. They go out quick, mine started to squeal so I started to head home. I would say about 5 miles and it was done. You also risk the chance of harming the pp if it goes on for to long. I would try to do it asap.
It's the TOB wobbling around in your tranny, mine has been doing it since last winter (only in the cold, I'd say 30's and below). Hoping it will last through this winter then I am getting a new SBC clutch put in come spring time. =D
Any auto parts store and I think when I got mine it was like 25.00ish it was awhile ago so don't Quote me on that. Also you might be able to find one on a vendor site.
