by disengage u mean not have pushed in, and by engage u mean pushed in, correct? some people look at this differently, just makin sure cause I am gonna try it.
HEy guys I got a call from my friend. His friend is a mechanic and he worked on G35s and 350z. He has taken apart transmissions and stuff. The rattling noise comes from a metal piece that you are able to move with your hand. That piece just rattles against the transmission.
I'm a first time 6MT driver, but I think my car may also be making these noises.
I thought it was just the fact that I'm still learning, but it sounds more like the noises everyone has.

Dude i have the same problem .. my first gear sounds like **** from 1000 rpm to 3000 rpm sounds like im super charged haha... but sounds messed up in a way .. i went to the dealer and they said the same thing they said it runs good and they dont see nothin wrong with it . i show aamco experts on transmissions and they said its my clutch . i beat my car up right when i got out the lot. is yours manual
Okay, I just pulled the car into the garage, I heard a weird noise so I pushed down the clutch, and the noise was gone. My car is defn making the chatter noise that everyone is talking about.
It also makes the noise VERY loud when I turn the car off when it is in N.

Going in Monday to have them take a look at it.
For all you socal guys, i'm going to Infiniti of Thousand Oaks. If I have success, I suggest going there and swamping them.

haha dam teedo you're fast i barely called you, but to clear things up let me explain it a bit.
My friend has done everything you can imagine to a G35 and 350Z, supercharge, turbo, auto to manual, you name it hes done it.
The rattle comes from the flywheel because it is a 2 piece design. The 2nd piece of the flywheel is what is making the noise. So when the clutch pedal is pushed down the pressure plate will push the two pieces together, therefore eliminating the rattle. Every Z and G he has worked on has had it. So it is normal and has been normal for the past 4-5 years with the Zs and Gs. Research 2 piece flywheels if you want to know more about the design.
You want it gone? Get a one piece flywheel next time you do a clutch job.

engage is when its pushed it. dont know if that is the right way of saying it.

the sound came after like 2-3k miles, so this is not normal. if it was normal, it will make that sound right after i turn on the car the first time at the dealership.
