ls3 tr6060 noises?

So since the first mile of driving my camaro after picking it up brand new with ~ 40 miles( requested tinting and protection films) 2013 SS M6 (NO 1LE Package)

i am getting loud scary clunk

when shifting out or pushing clutch in first gear
get car going to 5 to 10 mph then let of the gas( when car has just been begun engine braking ) push the clutch in very fast you will be welcomed by

loud scary violent clunk noise with echo comming somehwere in the car

this happens at speeds between 5-10 mph right after the car declerate from engine brake when clutch is pushed very fast( for example in parking lots or to avoid hitting pedestrian)

if any one has this symptom, please record it in video or voice and upload it and post it in this thread

Update; the car has ~ 6000 kms ~ 3800 miles

The clunk you hear is more than likely not the tranny but more so the driveshaft/drivetrain backlash.

Its "normal", drivetrain slack in the driveshaft and axles supposedly. After a 1-piece driveshaft and differential bushing installation I haven't heard it since. The bushings alone reduced it slightly, gone completely with the driveshaft.

good luck and i wish it nevers come back to your car

my car is currently at the dealer for this concern,

another concern if i got vibration in the clutch pedal at the top position i believe, when warm or probably cold too( i always warm her up pretty well) what does it means?

i read that it could be wrapped pressure plate( i hope not) i never abused her

thanks

Is there is any wear if i unintentionally continue reproducing this sound?

how does it clunk? what parts come into contact with each other?

I get the same clunk, I also had the clunk when I had my GTO. It's just the drive shaft and it's very normal. Go to a one piece drive shaft and all of your problems will go away.

thanks for the headup,

and no thanks my car will always remain stock, warranty reasons and i am not into modding scene

is there is any damage if i didn't adjust my driving style to avoid the clunk and keep reproducing it all the time?

thanks again,
