Has anyone else experienced a shuddering noise (sounds sort of like styrofoam rubbing together or some sort of bird call, hard to describe) during shifting? I get it in all gears but most noticeably while reversing, while I have the clutch in.

Does it happen right after letting off the throttle? Any intake changes lately? Could be the wastegate doing the "turkey/dolphin garble", it's how the opposite side of the turbo from the BOV let's out excess boost and is more noticeable if you have intake mods, even just a drop in filter...

Not throttle, but as I let out the clutch peddle. It does have a bit of a turkey sound though now that you mention it.No intake mods (yet!).

Yeah, that was my initial response too. Has anyone on here had premature clutch shaft/bearing wear-out?

I heard the same noise when my FiST had only few travel miles…..(My FiST has manual transmission)...I put some lubricating grease near the clutch pedal piston, and it worked [wink]
