However, there is only 57K miles on the car right now which worries me a little...I am new to Mustangs and wanted to double check with the experts before I do anything.I am guessing, this noise is the clutch release bearing and I basically need to replace the release bearing, clutch, pilot bearing, and resurface the flywheel...Right now I am undecided whether I want to do this myself on jackstands or pay a shop. But from doing some research online, it seems like a lot of Mustang owners are having problems with the release bearing noise even after replacing it with a new unit.Can anybody give me some advice on this.. Do I definitely need to pull the tranny and replace everything? How can I make sure that this noise will be gone forever? The noise is seriously the most annoying thing Ive ever heard!</blockquote>
