Especially after being ruff with it and parking your car with the windows down just hearing it before turning off. Its normal to hear noises from the transmission.

I almost always drive with the windows down and everything sounds so much louder in my garage when starting her up or shutting her down.

True. I think it's closure. Noise bouncing off the walls.

Precisely.

I will also add that the "clunk" seems to be relative to the speed at which you release the clutch pedal. If you dump the clutch, I expect it will clunk quite loudly. I just tested it this since my last post and when I release it fairly quick, it makes a noticeable clunk, while releasing it slowly does not clunk at all. I would it think it best to avoid making it clunk like this.
