You maybe hearing the throw-out bearing. Your loss of power is probably clutch slipage. You will want to replace the clutch disc, pressure plate,throw out bearing and pilot bearing. The first three items come in a clutch kit.

I haven't had this problem personally on mine.. But I do remember reading about it on e46fanatics.com

I think a quick search over there would answer the question for ya.
