When I release the clutch I hear a clunking noise . If I let out the clutch a certain way I dont hear it , so the noise will make a sound by the way I release the clutch. I have had several mechanics inspect the noise and they cant figure out what it is. Motor mounts have been checked , transmission mounts have been checked , universal joints checked and all are good. I have been told its a pilot bearing , throw out bearing,

When you depress the clutch, the throw-out bearing is set into motion. Its action separates the clutch from the flywheel pressure plate so that the direct connection between the engine and transmission is stopped.
As it wears, the throw-out bearing’s action can become “sloppy.” In other words, there is too much “slop” or play in the bearing action. The result is that it can jounce or bang when you depress the clutch so that instead of being nice and smooth, the action can become jerky and clunking can result.
I can see where you might think that the motor mounts are too blame, honestly. Because of uneven wear in the mounts, it is quite possible for the engine to clunk when you shift as the engine torques around on the mounts. Normally, the packing around each mount is supposed to absorb any jouncing so that its operation remains smooth, at all times.
Replacing the throwout bearing should cost you about $500 with all labor included.
If you would, could you let me know the outcome as I am always interested.
