Ok Here's the deal. When taking off from a start (Normal driving) as I let out the clutch pedal my car chirps like a bird until I hit about 20MPH. To make sure it wasn't the clutch, I stopped at the top of a hill and rolled down with the clutch pedal pushed in, I had no noise. As soon as I let out the clutch pedal, the chirping noise started and seems to increase with the speed of the car until I hit 20MPH, then it disappears. A couple of people told me that my pilot bearing was bad, so I put in a Spec stage II clutch/pressure plate, new pilot bearing/throw-out bearing, and a new clutch release fork. I still have the same problem. Has anyone encountered this before or know of another possible solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
