As an aside, I had all sorts of fits with shifting in 1st gear making horrible vibrations until I replaced the single front engine mount. It's a cheap fix easily done in your garage.
Clutch feels good and no vibration/ rattle is felt through the pedal.

As mentioned earlier, I installed new 987 engine mount with new side pads too, so that may not be it... even though it seems as if I started noticing this noise after new mount and UDP installation.
