No Gearbox Chatter?

I dont really have a chatter, more of a whirring noise when Im in high RPMs. Its more pronounced in the lower gears. I dont mind it.

I just started getting a slight pop/pinging noise when I first start moving in first gear and in reverse, but not any other gears. It's never happened before.... I'll rev it up, slowly disengage the clutch, and as soon as the car begins to move it'll be like POP POP piiingggg then go away. If I keep it in first when I slow down and roll over a speed bump it'll do it then too.

Anyone else have this?

The only strange noises I hear are when I execute bad launches from first or clutch out really fast with a large load on the trannie aka going down a hill or gunning it to a light etc.

I'm starting to feel very solid with the trannie and now very seldom hear the chatter and rattles

I originally thought the noise was the throw-out bearing, so i was not too concerned. The dealer says the transmission needs to be replaced. I have never had problems shifting, so this really surprises me.
