I think many 370's make a "clatter" sound when you disengage under load - for example in first gear, slowing down and not touching the gas. Apparently it's normal for this car. The way to avoid it is to press the clutch in gently, rather than just stomping on it. Ease it down through the engagement point the same way as if you were trying to start in first gear. After a few weeks you will be able to predict when you need to disengage in this manner.
