I changed transmission oil, still does it, only when the car is hot.

The clutch/IMS was replaced in March, my mechanic wants to open up tranny to see if something was not torqued appropriately, if there is a flywheel problem, etc. In the meantime mechanic recommends NO autocrossing until this is sorted out. I am dropping it off on Thursday will let you know outcome.

Do you still experience the rattle when idling in neutral?
That clacking noise could be the release arm bouncing around if it's detached from the release bearing. There are ridiculously small clips that are supposed to hold the two pieces together.
