Default Someone help! I have a few questions that need answers ASAP

Okay my car makes a weird like a rattling scratchy noise bu when I press the clutch it goes away?
When I accelerate it rattles but goes away once the RPMs get higher? & and I hear that same rattling scratchy noise when I ride in low RPMs it’s starting to get real annoying! I thought it was my clutch or throw out bearing but it won’t I just replaced both.

Just because it's new doesn't mean it was done right or isn't faulty.

Sounds like typical lightweight flywheel noise.

This ^^^ OR just the usual gear clatter from the transmission, particularly notable on the HR engine with JK transmission (supersedes CD009 but is "pretty much" the same transmission.)

But without putting hands on (or ear to) the transmission/clutch, this is merely a guess. Posting a video might help but best to have someone along that knows that can listen to it.

I have the DE though , I did a lil more research and the torque converter match my symptoms, so if it is that should I just replace the whole transmission?

Ah, ok, AT means a whole different set if “possibilities”, unfortunately something I can’t address. However, that said, I wouldn’t do anything as drastic as swapping the trans (possibly to find out that isn’t the issue). The “Throwing parts at it” methodology might be fine for cheaper parts like sensors; but a transmission? Uh no.

My only real advice is to Take it to a transmission sho to get an expert opinion.
