Can't find a solution ..
I am posting it here because i think it might be related to Clutch problem.. I did the search but couldn't locate similar problem..
Here is my situation.
This only happens when the car is warm/hot.
There is a weird like spinning noise coming from the front of the car. When i put the transmission in 1 or 2 gear and i completely release the clutch and gently press on the gas pedal there is this noise and it goes away after few seconds. It only happens when the car is under load and on low RPM's.
I had the clutch replaced about 2 years ago and had a new pilot/release bearings installed.
Could this be one of the bearing going bad? I also thought that it could be a timing chain problem?
What do you guys think???

If you are sitting still with the car in neutral, engine running, and the clutch pedal out, and you push the pedal in, does it make the noise for a couple of seconds and then die out?
Or, if the engine is running in neutral with the clutch out, and you shut the engine off, does the sound continue after the engine has stopped?

It only happens when i am accelerating from 1 gear and when i release the clutch pedal completely. It happens for couple seconds and same when i put it in 2nd gear and when i release the clutch (pedal up) and when i press on the gas pedal something spins inside for 2 sec and then it is normal.
I haven't noticed in 3 or 4 gear maybe because i have a loud exhaust .
When in neutral it is fine..
Does the release bearing spin for few seconds after I release the clutch pedal between shifts?? (pedal up)
