Thumbs up Clutch somewhat chattering

Hi guys,

It was just a couple days ago when suddenly I heard something different with my car while its idling. It sounds like the clutch is kinda chattering, but when I press the clutch in, it goes away. Don't get me wrong, it doesn't sound loud but I can definitely recognize the difference when the car is just idling. Should I be worried regarding this? I am currently running on the stock clutch and I have about 20,000K on the it. Any suggestion or comments, please post in here.

Thank you!

You may have a throw out bearing on its way out. Also, there has been a mini epidemic of broken clutch disc spring retainers. You may have one of these. No way of telling unless you take it apart or till it comes up with another more debilitating symptom, like not being able to change gears well or grinding with gear changes. It will seem like you can't fully disengage the clutch. Then, you'll know what it is.
