Transmission Rattling Noise

Hello,

I have previously posted a concern in regards to the rattling noise in the transmission. I've contacted Porsche and the field representative said it's normal. I am not 100% satisfied since I do feel that something is wrong.

If you have time, could you please take a look at the video clip below and let me know if your car makes the same noise (or if you know what the problem is). The throw out bearing was replaced but the noise is still there. The noise is NOT there when the car is cold (eg: first start in the morning).

Thank you!

Nope. I am using the stock flywheel!

I should also mention that the car is making quite a bit of backlash (or whatever you call it). For example, if you let off the gas at around 2000RPM, you can hear a 'thump' noise from the rear end. Weird!
