It's worth checking that your transmission linkage is still connected. Does the car feel like it's going into gear as you move the shifter?
+1 on checking the front engine mount. I have a 2002 986 with similar miles, and I just started noticing a very slight noise under these conditions. I have read many posts on a few different forums, and I am convinced it is the front engine mount.
It is worth checking since it is a lot cheaper than pulling the transmission.
Good luck!
