I have this funny clicking/winding sort of sound (I don't know how else to describe it short of recording the actual sound and posting it here) that I'm assuming is coming from the clutch, but could be from the gearbox. It's mainly noticeable in 1st, and doesn't happen everytime I'm in first.

Usually I'll take off and all sounds normal and fine, but then it gets all harsh and loud, the sound is definately coming from the clutch/gearbox somewhere. I notice that it doesn't happen when I take off quick, only when accelerating slowly, and when slowing down in 1st, or driving slowly in 1st.

Is my clutch on it's way out, or do I need to change the transmission fluid?

Can't tell you much more than that - it's kinda hard to try and find out exactly where it is coming from when I'm driving.
