Re: First time needing help, any help appreciated.

It certainly sounds like the throw-out bearing. It can easily become destroyed if it's seizing up, leaving you stranded. I've had that happen!

It can wear through the clutch and you will not be able to disengage the engine. I would fix before it destroys the clutch.
