Strange intermittent noise

[jimoma]

Hi, I am hearing an intermittent noise only when the clutch pedal is fully pressed to the floor, this to me appears to be the opposite noise to a throwaway/release bearing (where the noise goes away when the pedal is depressed), it also doesn't seem to sound like the sound of DMF noise from what I've read here and watched on Youtube?
My car is a 2011 BMW 320d, I've posted a link to a video I took with my phone and uploaded to OneDrive, has anyone encountered this? Thanks!

Any thoughts?

Clutch fork potentially?? Definitely something with T/O bearing or clutch fork in my opinion.

Sounds like your throwout bearing is going south. Or it may have locked up and is spinning directly on your clutch fork.

In either case it's not something I'd wait to see what happens, as MUCH more damage can happen if the fork wears through, or the TO bearing falls apart/explodes.

But having the clutch DISengaged would not warrant the T/O bearing noise... If you have a noise bearing, disengaging the clutch quiets it.

If the TO bearing is going bad, it CAN make noise in both pedal in, and out positions. It could also be your pressure plate being loose. I've had that happen and it clunked similar to the sound your car is making.

Can you feel anything through the pedal?
