Default transmission sound need help

Hi everyone have a question on my 08 350z i hear a sound from my transmission at idle when i have my foot off my clutch peddle. But as soon as i push down on the clutch peddle the sound stops and i am not sure if this is normal since i really never pay much attention to the sound of my car when my driving since i have my radio up.

If its a chattery sound thats normal, more pronounced at idle or in a drive thru or next to a wall...Z transmissions are noisy by nature..

I see well when your start the car up and let it idle its a smooth quite sound but after driving it for a while lets say 15 to 20 mins then you start to hear a rough sound. It's hard to explain what it sounds like but it sounds rough and not smooth and quite anymore.

I don't really notice mine, but I will say the transmission is noisier than other cars I've driven. If your transmission sounds like a food processor, then that's an issue; otherwise I'd say it's normal.

Mine is louder after driving for about 15-20 minutes as well. Don't worry about it.

Btw not me that pointed it out, but the word is quiet, not quite. Not hating just helping.

This is completely normal. Sounds like the same exact thing on my 07. It's the flywheel chatter which I had on my 05 G35 coupe 6MT too.
