I get it once in a while, but really only when I don't shift well. This is my first manual car so I don't get perfect shidts everytime, but getting there!
If you shifter smoother, I et it will go away. Just my two cents

I took mine in b/c of the noise, especially in 2nd gear. I was use to the smooth and quiet shifting from my RX-8. Ford dealer mechanic said it was normal. To me, sounds like Ford did not put enough insulation under the shifter. Who knows.

Dealer took a look ant mine and told me the same thing. My mechanic told me that another 05 gt he modded made the same tranny noise during shifting as mine. So, for what it's worth, it's normal.
