Default Wierd Noise!!

Has anyone experience wierd noise coming from the suspension area on the passanger side? I was told from the dealer that the noise is normal and that the 1.8T has the same noise. The mechanic claimed it is the noise coming from the drive shaft or somthing like that. The noise appear to be like metal knocking metal noise and it only appears to knock when I disengage the clucth rapily, especially on 1st~3rd gear. I don't hear the noise on 4th or 5th and on. The funny thing was one of my rubber bushing on the joint on passanger side was ripped and I thought the noise was because of the ripped bushing. So after the dealer repaired it I thought it took care of the problem, but unforuntately not and then was told the noise I was hearing is normal. sigh!! the worst part is the noise don't come on consistently, it will somtime come on and somtimes it will not. I guess I just want to make sure what the dealer told me was right because I am really sick of going back there telling them about the same problem.

Default Front or rear of the passenger side?

It doesn't sound like a squeek?

Oh, long time no chat. Should meet up and maybe we can find out what is causing it.

Hey bro, yeah, long time no chat man. The noise appears to be coming out under the front passanger seat. When you have time? Maybe I can drive over and you can hear it.
