I had mine in yesterday (30Sept05) out of frustration.

Of course, putting the mechanic in the car cured the noise for the moment, but he said they were aware of an issue and that there would be no engine swapping today.

I had the sense of B.S. when he said "Well, it's a sports car and some people take those noises as endearing." I told him it was endearing like a bad heat shield rattle on a honda. Then I heard about some alloy that is harder than others and that might be making the noise. My gut feeling is they know something but are on an advisory-only "put it off 'til later" response.

I was then told the positive note in bringing it in is that I am now on some "complaint list." It does not make me feel any better. This noise is really cramping my style and I'm about to boil over in frustration.
