My question is should I reschedule with Stillen or not?

You sure it isn't the clutch rattle? That is pretty loud out of gear with the clutch out, clutch in it goes away.

Ah, I did not think about that. I went out of the car to try to identify where the noise comes from but it's tough... To me it sounds like it comes from the engine but something from the clutch would from the outside also seem to come from the engine.

I guess that could be a good guess.

It's easy to test. Stick your foot on the clutch, if it goes away that is what it is.
