my 850 makes an intermittant groaning sound when starting off in 1st gear. no slippage, clutch seems o.k. if i start more aggressively, the sound isn't there. any ideas?

My 93 has been making a groan noise since the day I boight it,

I drive the crap out of it, no slippage yet 95k on it,

I heard this is typical, nwe clutch is 800 bucks +/-

keep driving until it slips

anyone else have thoughts on this? I'm feeling some very slight feedback from my clutch... it's shifts just fine though.

anyone have similar experiences?
the mystery whine has returned :(
