I can hear what you're talking about because I hear the same exact thing in my 05 6MT w/ stock transmission under the same driving conditions. Can't say if it's normal, but you're not alone.

Hey JKL, that sounds like my car lol. I recorded another clip. You should be able to tell from this one. Please excuse my downshifting... I was holding my cell phone.

I hear some "clicking" not "pinging" or predetonation.

It almost sounds like it's coming from inside the transmission. Any other ideas other than predetenation?

Hello I was wondering if you ever figured out what the cause of the noise was. I have a similar sound and idk what it is.

Thanks for the response. After hrs of research I found out my noise was the timing chains due to low oil. Apparently these cars has some oil consumption issue
