Hello there sounds like a release bearing on your clutch.  The release 
bearing is not too expensive but you need to take everything apart as if 
you were doing the clutch, which is a lot of work, it was on my 1993 90 
CSQ.  So usually the recomendation is to do the clutch at the same time.

All in total this get's expensive ! :-(
