I think its a completely natural noise, my NEW IX does it when im just sitting in neutral w/o clutch in. As i put the clutch in to go into 1st the noise suddenly disappears, to me it sounds like a fluttering/rattling clutch, but what do i know ^^.

Just had my ACT-HDSS kit installed and I have this sound at idle now... also, a little bit of a additional gear last noise when decelerating in gear. The idle noise is most disconcerting for sure..

Any answers to my questions? The "whirring" sound disappears when clutch pedal is pressed in and reappears when the clutch pedal is out. Is my clutch worn? Thanks!
