Well, a new clutch kit didn't solve it.
The garage replaced for free and it's still making the noise.
Seems like it's gearbox related - possibly input shaft bearing or what ever it's called. Damn.
Going to drive till it starts giving me grief - just an annoying noise at the moment.
Just turn up the stereo!

Because they said they'd call me when it's in bits so I could pop over and see. Except it's a 15 minute bike ride. I agreed anyway, and when they called, said I was doing Uni work so they definitely took it to bits - if they had noticed they had done something wrong i.e. worn bits already, then would have replaced it.

Yeah. Car stationary, in neutral foot off clutch, makes a noise. Foot on clutch, noise goes away.
