Tranny Release Bearing shot, Will Cause Bogging / Shaky Noise and Loss of Power?

I just went out for a drive. Car was sitting for a good 3 hours prior to going out.

Never went over 80mph on this trip. On my way back home, I go to take off from a light and I feel my clutch pedal vibrating, and a weird ******* noise, car felt pretty weak, I stayed on the rode for a while and the noise goes away after about 25mph but still a power loss none the less.

I read a thread a few days ago that this is my release bearing taking a ****?

Its a 90 dollor part. Hell You can get a Stock Clutch Kit for 130. And thats Everything youll need.

But yes it sounds to me like Youre bearing has completly Seized up. If thats the case you better get it Fixed Quick it Will wear thru the Fingers on you Preasure plate. Then youll need a tow home.

EDIT: I Found a Link For You Guys BTW.
