Transmissiom m6 rattle

Do your transmissions emit a constant very faint rattling sound. It dissappears when I press the clutch in and comes back when I let the clutch out. I remember my 2014 SS had the same thing. It is also there when the car is moving.

Does the 6th gen have a single mass or dual mass flywheel? In the C4 Vette if you switched out the dual mass flywheel with s single mass unit it would rattle in neutral with the clutch out like crazy. Sounded like you had a bunch of ball bearings loose in the tranny but it was perfectly normal. I've heard a few others say they've heard a rattle under the same conditions that you describe.

The reason I haven't went to the dealer yet is because I believe it's a single mass. If that's the case I am not worried.

No, what you describe is normal and happens to every 6th and 5th gen. My rattle doesn't come when you press the clutch, it goes away when you press it. It is constant and very silent but still a bit audible to make me paranoid. You hear it when the car is idling in nuetral.

Get used to it. The rattles have been a a constant characteristic of the Tremec manual transmissions for many years. My C4 vette, C5 Z06 vette, Gen 5 SS 1LE, all sounded the same. Bunch of marbles at idle, push in the clutch and it quiets up. Sounds like the tradition continues in the Tremec 6060 with rev match.
