i also have the same problem as you do but the worst thing about this situation is that i work for the dealer
the dealer is putting together what they call a field report which will then be put on record and later sent to the customer care/tech department.
the sad thing is that there is alot of red tape involved when noises are the concern so i guess you and i ( and others! ) will just have to be patient.

Recently I've seen two is300/manual with a chirp type sound at idle. The noise was not always there, but when it was, it sounded like a repeated chirp or squeek noise. It turned out to be the throw out bearing, next to the clutch making the noise. Does that sound like the same noise you have?
