Just a different approach!!
Tom,
What is your experience w\ a light weight flywheel? I have done the GIAC flash and the fabspeed as well as the short shift and love them all. Is the LW flywheel a smart purchase? How much?

There are several small clips; one of them is probably loose.

The 01 turbo has an additional tranverse stabilization bar welded into place right at the leading edge of the rear seats. On certain surfaces, this thing sounds like a drum stick moving across a washboard. There is a TSB regarding a fix. If you are sure it is from above the rear window...Never mind...,however, if you focus in on a rear seat source, keep this in mind.
I live in a historic district with brick streets. I finally figured it out and fixed it, thank God.
Tom
