Im having an issue with my clutch, or at least I think so. When I press down on my clutch it makes a whining noise but sometimes it sounds like something cracking or popping weird thing is clutch still works fine and doesn’t slip. From some of the research I have done it says it can be something with the clutch, the differential system, or a input shaft problem Im not really sure, if anyone has any ideas or questions I could really use the help as it is my daily, thanks!!

Its kinda behaving a little different, I had one guy test drive it and he said the clutch feels like it grabs at the end of the pedal and It might need to be replaced. And another mechanic that didn’t really care when he pushed in the pedal listened to the noise said the pressure plate is to stiff. But like I said it never slips and grabs gears fine even when Im shifting at 8000 rpms. My slave cylinder looks like it is leaking and I haven’t checked any motor mounts Im just hoping I can figure it out. When I turn the Ac on it feels like the car wants to stall when in first gear like I have to give it more gas and let go more soon.
