my clutch chatters or makes a rattling sound after driving it sometimes. the dealer said it normal when the clutch is hot. sounds like **** until u push in the clutch but when u let go of it in neutral it chatters..any idea what this could be?

Typical issue that's been beaten to death on these boards. One quick search would yield you endless amount of unproductive results. Unfortunately, you're just going to have to live with it.

Common since the 350Z. It's the dual mass flywheel. Sounds like a cement mixer.

Interesting - I actually love the fact that my clutch is silent. In my former ride an S60R (Volvo for those not familiar) the clutch was quite noisy and I got accustomed to the chatter. I guess I am fortunate for the moment...

Mine is very noisy - especially working the clutch at low speed eg. a gentle start from a dead stop or in and out of the garage.

Cars make noise.

Yep, mine chatters. Doesn't seem to be a pattern for triggering it. But even if it stops, I have to deal with my girlfriend's chattering, and there's no TSB for that.

My factory clutch was very quiet but the JWT clutch makes a hell of a noise at idle with the clutch pedal released. Clutch pedal in = quiet. From what I understand its something we just ahve to live with.

Mine, too. I'm hoping an aftermarket exhaust will hide the noise!
