Having a problem on my MT 06 Enthusiast. During a down shift, I'm hearing a rattling sound coming from the engine compartment. I don't feel any feed back on the clutch, and the car is able to slip into gear with no problem. Any help out there? Nothing really performance wise is being affected, but the noise is really bothering me.

 

Not sure if its the same 'problem' but the cars are known for noisy tranmissions.

Most people will say the Z sounds like a "dump truck"

mine rattles too, and I've heard most other people here experience the same thing. Some have gotten their trannys replaced only to have the noise come back a few thousand miles down the road...

just the nature of the beast I guess
