I just started my car up and left it sitting there and it was really noisey. The engine was making a loud knocking noise. I got in the car and put the clutch pedal down and the noise stopped, any ideas[?] Also every now and again the clutch will engage close to the floor then the next minute be fine again Any ideas[?]

I take it thats in the gearbox[?] I had mine rebuilt in february should they of changed all this. If it is this i take it its a big job. If on my car it is the release bearing what kind of job is that[?]
