Default Pulley sound?

Read the sticky but didn't find a matching case. It sounds like a belt or a pulley but i'm not too sure can anyone diagnose this sound? This isn't my video but the sounds i'm hearing are nearly identical to the first few seconds of the video before he says "Clutch in", the sounds is only there when the engine is warm too. I had a TCT issue which I replaced recently, so it's not that i'd like to think.

My guess is that your throwout bearing is going bad. Listen to it by your slave cylinder and see if it gets louder.

Thanks for the reply, for that specific video I think you may be onto something because it most certainly sounds like it gets worse when the clutch is engaged. But for me the sound is kinda of constant when the car is warmed up, it doesn't really change in intensity but just made the sound you hear the first 10 seconds of the video. Could it still be clutch/transmission related?

It's hard to tell. I'd try listening under the car by the slave cylinder to either confirm or rule out a clutch issue.

Run it for 30 seconds without the belt on. This will narrow it down quite a bit.
