Considering the money potentially involved, I suggest a little investment in diagnosis equipment. I use an electronic "Engine Ear" and an old stereoscope. Or even a long screwdriver. CAREFUL !
It is a fairly reliable way of at least locating the source of the noise. That may not seem very helpful until you start contemplating dismantling the engine or transmission to find what a stethoscope would have told you?
It may be as simple as the flywheel/crankshaft bolts have come loose - they should have been replaced with new at the DMF+clutch change.Pressure plate bolts?
Meanwhile, do some research on LWFW vs DMF. The key question is "how are you dealing with harmonic(not dynamic) imbalance?" Some are lucky with the LWFW, others loose and engine. Search for the gory details.
Let us know what you find?
