Sound from engine

Hello

On my almera there is a sound that sounds thats similar to somthing hitting thick porcelain, kinda hard to explain since ive never heard a sound like that before. its like konstant high pitch klamp, klamp, klamp... sound.

It isnt always there, it comes only if i press the clutch, if i throttle then it dissapears, if i idle or neutral i hear it's also there if im coasting but only in low speeds and its less noisy.

If i release the clutch, then it goes away also.


Anyone experienced something like this?
 
That sounds to me like the spring from the gearbox rubbing on the heatshield under the gearstick, there is a small spring that stiffens the gearbox up, they tend to snap and rub under the gearstick heatshield in the middle of the car, sometimes if you wiggle the gears with the engine off you will hear it rub I removed my spring
