Hello everyone. Bought this car not too long ago. Almost due for the first oil change. I daily the car and do enjoy spirited driving. I know when I bought the car ( 70k miles ) I did have the "typical" idle noises. At first I would get the noise clutch pressed in and it would go away. ( or vice versa whichever is the "typical" issue that I've been reading about ).

Now here lies my concern. I've searched and read a few threads about the issue and nothing seems to show a bad rattling noise at idle with the clutch IN or OUT. It doesn't matter. In N , in Gear clutch in or out it will rattle. There is no change in tone clutched in or out . It is the same either way. Of course, sound goes away while a gear is engages. I only hear it at idle. SURELY this can not just be normal. Honestly, it sounds like crap. I just noticed whether I clutch in or out it sounds BAD.

Is there a FIX to this issue?
