Yes agree. Will do that and come back. Will try and get more audio of where the noise is coming from vs where it is not etc.

I've seen the DMF videos and know about the 15mm test and I'm now wondering if I was too keen to give it the green light when it was probably close to failure (or had failed).

Does the back-n-forth clatter of a failed DMF sound like (or would sound like) what my video sounds like? Thinking that the gearbox is clattering due to the rotation back/forth of the input shaft. When the clutch is engaged, the noise goes away, so seems plausible.
