It's unlikely clutch-related. When was the M/T fluid last replaced? What is its condition and level?
Changing the fluid, especially if it hasn't been replaced for a long time, should be the first thing to do. If the whine persists, it's very likely due to wear and tear. 1st and 2nd gear is the most used gears in a car that is frequently in stop and go traffic.
1st and 2nd gears share the same synchronizer hub/sleeve.....
eto most likely ang may sira.....
chipped teeth on the synchro hub, worn synchro,........
bottomline, remove and disassemble the trans for better diagnosis.
ibig nyo po bang sabihin yung bearing ng input shaft? input shaft yung nakaconnect sa clutch disc
or yung bearing ng mainshaft which is nasa rear part ng transmission.
kasi kung mainshaft bearing e lahat ng gears sana ang ingay. kaso hindi in your case
pero di bale, at least nasolve na rin problem.
