Default Rattle/Buzz while IN gear

I get a nasty LOUD buzzing sound (like the tct/card in spokes sound but way louder) when the S is in gear in either accel or decel.. its not constant but when it buzzes its pretty consisted for minutes at a time

when buzzing, i clutch in and the buzz goes away. in neutral there is no buzz. sometimes in neutral if i rev hard enough there is a slight buzz as i throttle off.

this makes me think that its NOT the tct. through searches i found that it MIGHT be the throwout bearing.

does it sound like TOB to anyone?

If it was the throwout bearing, it would make noise while in neutral. it will only go away when you press down on the clutch.
