My car was making what sounded like water flowing through pipes sound. As of last night, there was a squeaking that occured frequentely on acceleration (in gear) and even in neutral (at stop). Whenever I depress the clutch now, something clearly doesn't feel right. I can almost feel the gears. And upon acceleration, the sound is a high pitched squeal that sounds horrendous. I want to think that it is the throw out bearing and maybe fork assembly. Not sure though, any guesses?

If the noise changes while pressing and releasing the clutch sounds like your on the right track.
