It's mostly in 2nd gear when moving really slowly (stop and go traffic) and I'm too lazy to shift into 1st. It's fine until you load the engine then it's noisy.

I'm not sure why everyone has an opinion on what I SHOULD be doing when I'm simply asking if anyone else has run across this.
Yes.. Normal.. As long as you are not excessively loading it at low rpms.. It's fine..
Its not all engine noise either.. Clutch and gears make noises with low rpms that rattle on thru..
