rattling noise during 1st gear

That noise is normal. It's just the clutch/throwout bearing being a little rattly. The 350 is the same way.

Keep the clutch depressed when you turn the car off and you won't hear it. You'll get it every now and then when shifting in a low gear depending on your technique.
