Here's the story, I had the transmission rebuilt because the previous owner had issues with the transmission. So while I was getting the tranny done, I changed out the stock clutch to the sacs kit along with a luk dual mass flywheel. While i was in there, i changed the bolts on the flywheel and locktited them. Anyways, I reinstalled everything. When I release the clutch i am hearing a clunking sounds as if something is rubbing against the heat shield. The weird thing, once i go over 15mph the noise disappears completely. Say i start in 2nd gear i won't even hear that noise, which is weird. So I really don't know what the issue can be since everything is new? Could this be an axle issue? Some are sayings it clutch shatter but its not a lightweight fly wheel... I attached the video below if you guys can help me out that would be nice.

Did you install a used Dual Mass? When they go bad they start sounding like a marble in a can usually at low speed starting when you push in the clutch.

Hey everything is new! Only 15miles.

Does it make any noise while idling or difficulty engaging the clutch? Like the clutch is binding?

Normal noise, I think i found the problem. I did not use brake cleaner on the flywheel and pressure plate to remove the oe grease.

You would definitely have some slipping and maybe some chatter. If its a light coat it should go away fairly quickly. Good luck!

Yeah thats what it is, I hope so. it's just annoying that i have to remove the tranny again.
