i have been driving with a worn out clutch I believe. Biting point has gone higher and in the past before I adjusted to the higher biting point I was driving with some juddering when setting off at gear 1.

Now that i have adjusted to the higher biting point to reduce/eliminate the judder, I realised a soft rattling sound coming from the engine bay.

I'm just worried all the judderng have loosen up some parts. Any clue?

I get it when moving off from stationary.

It sounds out at the point when I'm trying to catch the biting point and fully releasing the clutch.

'll go drive and pay more attention to hear when it sounds
