i replaced the clutch and flywheel on my 97 420A motor a little less than a year ago (less than 10k miles). i did the work myself with some help. it seems whenever the car is warming up and the clutch is engaged theres a really wierd rattling noise coming out of the tranny. the colder outside it gets the longer this noise continues (until the car warms up). when the car is warmed up it sounds great. Car shifts perfect and runs very smoothly all the way to redline. anyone heard of this happening before or know if i screwed up my install? Clutch is stock. feedback would be helpful. Thanks.
 
i've had it also it was my throwout bearing, if you have the time and mnoey i would replace it with a nsk throwout bearing i've had it in now for 2 years and its ok.
