I had recently installed the "new and upgraded" flywheel, hoping to get rid of the annoying well-known rattle when ideling.

Drove off from the service, without hearing the rattle and believing I would live happily ever after. I was proven wrong. Despite the new flywheel, the rattle returned two days later.

I have until now replaced one gearbox, two clutches and one "new" flywheel in order to cope with this problem - to no avail..

I totally give up now, but I will continue driving my car and ignore the rattle....

Any other experiences?
