Havent been here for a while, my car still does the rattle/chatter noice in first. Just wondering if everyone is just living with it or if someone ever found a solution! Its loudest when outside temp is high and when I have been driving 30 mins+. (driving off at a red light sometimes even makes me feel ****, helps if I keep the revs up more as I normally would do)
Also when I am driving slow in first gear and I have to brake "hard" and depress my clutch quickly I sometimes get a hard bang/clunk |

Hey guys just thought I would share is. I have had my 2013 370z for a week now and it does the same thing. I test drove two of them and verified they both made this noise. What I have found is if I stay in 1st longer and let it rev a little higher, then the noise isn't as bad.

I used to get this noise as well but starting learning the timing and how much pressure apply to the clutch. The noise is gone about 80% of the time now. |

I have this same problem. If I am coasting downhill, in first gear, even with the clutch depressed (only in first gear) there is a speed correlated whine. Also, if I am going uphill, and press in the clutch, it makes a nasty thunk as it disengages. Should I have this checked out?
