Ok guys got a problem with the car again and need some help. After the car warms up and I'm sitting at idle, when the a/c compressor starts to spin it makes a grinding/chattering noise that seems to get better when I apply some pressure to the clutch pedal. It always seems to happen when the rpm's drop whenever the a/c compressor starts to spin. Has this happened to anyone else?
Grinding/chattering noise can't figure it out, please help

Your A/C has nothing to do with your clutch. If the sound goes away when you press the clutch in then your throw out bearing is on it's way out. The A/C compressor is a different problem.
+1. Mine started chirping a little right before I deployed. I'm sure I'll be in the same boat soon.
I'm guessing that when your A/C kicks in, the RPM changes to something that makes your TOB chirp/chatter. The grinding is a little confusing though -- a really bad TOB will grind when you push the clutch in.
