It will be hard to get a recording since it is intermittent. The gear change itself is irelevant, it is only when pushing the clutch in, while im already in 1st gear. Doesnt matter If I leave it in first gear or change out, the noise happens once the clutch goes in.

Throw out bearing possibly. Best to take it to the dealership see and let them diagnose the issue.
For reference sake, how many miles and have you owned the car from new?
Couple of things to check; DP heat shielding and exhaust shielding first. Resonance vibration can cause either shielding to rattle. Might be as simple as this, especially being intermittent.

Hmm I hope not the throw out bearing, the car only has 12k miles. I bought it used at 6k miles. Only recently noticed the noise. I don't suspect throw out bearing since the noise does not happen if the car is not moving. Putting the clutch in and out in neutral sounds the same and doesn't make any noise.Throw out bearing possibly. Best to take it to the dealership see and let them diagnose the issue.

One odd thing I noticed is that it seems to happen almost entirely if I put the clutch in while the wheels are turned, either maneuvering slowly through a parking lot in 1st gear, or If I clutch in to shift from first during a turn. So I believe has something to do with disengaging the clutch while being under load? Still unclear if it would be the clutch or flywheel rattling. Now that I think of it, I've heard previous manual cars make a similar noise if I'm pulling into an inclined driveway to park at low speeds and clutch in before the engine dies, but never just taking a normal turn.
Here is a video of mine, noise can be heard 7 seconds in. After trying to replicate it more, it seems to happen mostly after the car has been warmed up and when I am turning.
If the throw out bearing is slightly worn it will cause a rattle during shifting. As it gets worn more, it will cause a rattle even when the clutch is disengaged, setting still or moving. If it‘s a flywheel, you’ll have a much more pronounced rattle and vibration especially thru the clutch pedal.
12K miles is not unusual, if the car has been launched hard on a regular basis, power shifted or shifted poorly. There is no mileage guarantee of any clutch part unless it’s a manufactures defect or failure. Such is highly unlikely.
Buying a used VN, it’s most likely been launched frequently and run harder then most cars. It’s one of the primary reasons of ownership. This is the chance you take buying used, without knowing the previous owner or how it was treated in the hands of the dealership it was purchased from.

Hi,
I started noticing audible noise when gearbox is in neutral and and clutch is engaged. Noise goes away as soon clutch is engaged. It’s getting louder over time.
I went to two dealerships and they both claimed that everything is okay, but I doubt that.
Here is a video
I suspect that input shaft bearing is starting to go out.

Probably shaft or throwout bearing. Got a similar issue in my R33 right now.
Time to drop the gearbox I would think. Either concentric release bearing, input shaft bearing or, maybe, flywheel spigot shaft bearing if it has one.
It's only normal if other cars do it. Mine certainly doesn't.
If you attach a small gear to a big gear, the small gear has to turn a bunch of times to make the big gear turn once. By putting gears of varying sizes that you can switch between, you can change the speed the wheels turn without changing the speed the engine turns. The shifter stick changes which gears are actually connected to the wheels and which are not.
I had the throwout bearing replaced & it still made the noise. Dealer then said well it'll be the clutch, pressure plate or flywheel & it would be my cost to replace those becuase they're classed as consumables. They didn't seem to invested in looking further. Having the car parked next to a wall with the windows down also helped to hear the noise. Could feel it through the pedel without shoes on.
I am struggling
I am not sure how this could be throwout bearing. I also hear it much better next to a wall, and what also helps is to slightly rev up to 2k with exhaust in normal, then difference between clutch engaged and disengaged is more noticeable. I have hard time swallowing the bill for a clutch after just 20k km of mostly moderate driving style. It’s getting frustrating because to me it seems that unless ECU throws code, dealerships are clueless, or maybe Hyundai doesn’t give them enough time to investigate.
Read your service booklet. It states the individual warranty on clutches, brakes etc.
Hi guys, I have a problem when downshifting. From 3 to 2 (or from 4 to 3), when I release the clutch, a whistling sound lasts for one/two seconds. I hear the same noise at a constant speed of 50 km/h. Could it be the clutch release bearing? Has anyone had the same problem? I have a 2019 performance with 30k km.
Hi Jajodu, I tried to record the noise, but unfortunately the audio is not clear; I will try again the next few days. I noticed that in neutral there is a rolling noise, if I press the clutch it disappears (maybe it's the pressure plate bearing). The whistle I hear when downshifting and at constant speed is different from the noise I hear in neutral and I have no idea what it could be but I guess it's some clutch organ.
