This was the first thing I noticed about the Z when I got it. And I got it used so I was a little more nervous. I did some research and seemed to be common. I am relieved I'm not the only one thats for sure and that it dates back to 350's. I'm about to service the trans with Redline MT85, I heard good results with cold shifts and overall better shifting smoothness. Im gonna service the diff while I'm at it too. I don't expect it to do anything for the clutch noise though just seems to be normal for design. I work at BMW and one of the techs said the older M cars were the same way too just noisy. So until the clutch fails it doesn't bother me any.
