Did they ever find out anything for you???

You know I get this same noise too. It's like a slight rattle/chatter noise when I'm in first and letting off the clutch and slightly giving it gas. It does it switching to second too sometimes. No problems just sounds weird, anyone else have this?

I hear that same chattering sound as crbn_fbr and I started having an issue with 6th gear at 5K miles (posted a thread about this).

Any update on this? I'm close to pulling the trigger on a 6MT (coming from an automatic), and I really don't want to spend $35K on something that sounds like a dump truck cruising through a parking lot...

Could this just be a limited batch of cars with this 'problem'?
