    Strange noise coming from flywheel/clutch

    What's up r3v, my recently purchased E30 318is creates a loud screeching noise after driving it. For example, I reverse down my driveway, put it in gear (clutch still depressed) and rev it and sometimes this noise occurs. After revving it about twice it goes away, but is this significant at all? It also gets louder as I rev higher so this led me to thinking it was a drivetrain issue.

    open hood
    start/try to replicate scenario that causes noise (bring up revs with throttle body lever)

    (i suspect loose belt)
