RE: [T3] C.V Joint?

Yes they are spinning and keeping constant velocity etc. but the load on
the joint and its internal bits is much different when clutch is
engaged/disengaged.  This is analogous to a FWD car making noise only when
turning in one specific direction while accelerating for instance.

THis is definately not to say that the original question/problem is
definately a CV joint, but I wouldn't rule it out yet.

More symptoms please,
Hope this helps,
