The one thing I hate about my EVO
Aside from not having cruise......
.....the most annoying thing about my car right now is how noisey the clutch. Basically when my car is parked and not in gear the cluch mechanizm makes a bunch of nice rattling ticking noises. Makes the car sound like it has rod knock. As soon as I push in the clutch (even a little) all the noises go away.
I have test driven several other EVOs and they were all noisey....though some louder than others. I wish there was a way to make them silent.
Anyone know if any aftermarket clutches that tame things down?

Funny thing i have the exact same noise. I almost thought it was the DP rattling, but likewise when i engage the clutch the noise goes away. I think it is the sign of a clutch at the end of its life!

I do agree, there is nothing worse then the rattle of a worn out "TOB" on a perfectly good running car.

I only notice it when I am at a drive through with the window rolled down and the a/c on.
