Default Weird noise!!

Ok, this started about three weeks ago. It makes a spinning (dont know how else to describe it) and I can feel it in the shifter, but only when the car is cold and at about 1k rpm in second and third on deceleration. It engages in all gears without any problems, but I have noticed that it engages rather rough. I noticed that my clutch reservoir was low on fluid(about 2/3rds low). I refilled it and has not gone down yet. The clutch isnt slipping either. I was wondering if the slave was going bad or the throwout bearing. Im stummped. Anyone have any ideas?? Thanks

Sounds like a throw out bearing going out.

It will if it goes on for long. These generally start as a squeeky kind of roll over noise cold.
