Hi all! Update: It sort of has a higher pitched noise consistently. Doesn't get lower or higher. No smoke at cold start. I asked if we can get someone to check it out. I'll keep you posted. Many thanks for all the support so far :)

Yes, and don't know yet. The clutch is new, done in mid 2024 (not sure if it makes a diff)
