Ok, so i just got done changing my transmission, and clutch, to a spec d complete clutch system. I bled the clutch according to the FSM and now when i start the car i get a strange tapping noise. The noise happens when the clutch is both depressed, and let out, although the sound does get softer when the clutch is depressed. Now heres the weird part, after driving the car for 10 or so minutes, the noise goes away? I was just wondering if anyone else had this same problem, and if there was an easy solution to fix it.

not sure, Ive seen this before when the clutch was not pressed and it was the throw out bearing that needed to be replaced., also heard a noises like that from craked flywheel, and when the metal gets hot and expands the piecs could mesh together a little better and not be causing any more noise, happens sometimes

but i put a new TOB on it, and the flywheel is new, torqued to the correct specs, and in the correct pattern. So i have no idea what it could be. any other suggestions?
