A intermittent clatter at idel that continued as you took off. Yes they're putting in the newer version, and it was covered under warranty.

have you had issues with this

on occasion Larry, less now than before the comp change, Wasn't  every time, just enough to irritate me... With the new comp no more rattle on start up nice and quiet. That in itself was reason enough for me to get it changed plus a good excuse for a chrome inner at zero labor... Have to put those two issues on the work order to get it paid for.

It's a dampener that makes you think your primary chain is loose, and sounds like your silverware drawer hitting the floor.  :D
