Ugly noise, need inputs...

I've just bought an -04 A2 TDi 75

Milage? 126000km

Driving home from previous owner a sound appeard in third gear.
Driving along in 3rd gear at ca 2500 revs, it startet rattling. Seems liike the sound is coming from under the gearleaver/handbrake. It's like metal rattling, it stops when I'm push the clutch in. It does not happen all the time, it seems like the sound is triggered at a spesific load/rev in 3rd gear. It does not stop before I push the clutch/changing gear.

When I'm taking off from still to 60 mph and cycle normal thru the gears it does'nt appear.

Could this be an undertray, or somthing under the car?

Any suggestions?

Excuse my English...

Could be the starting of the clutch going? I had similar noises shortly before I had it diagnosed as the clutch starting to give out
