Succesful replication of rattle! Tech really nice and helpful. Mentioned that its hard to call it a TSB or make it a TSB due to the lack of abundance of twins. Not enough problems reported.

hmmmm........maybe they just can't "deal with" a
part of an assembly going bad. They need to replace the
whole thing.
So, fire that puppy up, in the dealer's parking lot, slip it into neutral, jam the clutch pedal to the floor and hold it with piece of 2"x4". Leave it running.
Go into the showroom, have a cup of coffee, eat a couple of cookies, read the latest car mag and wait (I'm estimating 5 minutes).
When the TOB freezes, the clutch explodes and the flywheel grinds it all up and the pieces fly out through the bell housing ....... ask the tech to look at it.
NOW, they have something to work with ....... replace the flywheel, clutch, pressure plate ....... AND throw out bearing ....... an assembly .......
