My twin disk makes a nice rattle, on top of that I have the old decel noise. I Installed the twindisk at the same time I replaced my Tc. All three are distinct noises.

Decel noise is a tough to describe rattle, Twin disk is a more obvious rattle. TC on it's way out is a siren like whine or howel when on light to no throttle.

Drain your tc and look for shavings.

I am really starting to believe that it may not be the transfer case. I think it may be a issue with the clutch+6 sp. Cany anyone else verify that their 6 speed does this with this clutch. I do have a slight whine in 6th and sometimes 5th. I guess only time will tell.

My car has also never been launched, ever!

The decel noise is normal for a twin. I had the exedy twin in my 03 8 and had the same decel noise. I have an ACT MB7 HDSS w/ prolight flywheel and it makes absolutly no noise at all.

It's not the T-Case. It's the damn clutch. I've had that noise ever since I had my Exedy Twin disk installed.

Noise from a T-Case going bad is much more obvious (In most cases)

Yes, I think it is the clutch. The customer of mine had a 5spd. I have heard those exedys make noise on both 5 and 6spd cars, its not a function of number of gears.

If you are going to spend the money, I would suggest doing it on a Tilton Twin ceramatallic.

It's the clutch!!

I know from personal experience that both Exedy & Tilton twin disc clutch kits make noise on decel.

Nothing you can do about it, but jus live with it or change the clutch.
