I haven't noticed much if any performance degradation or any other issue besides some vibration in one of my wheels. Taking it in soon for that... I have 12k miles on her.
The noise in mine is a bit different. Very light throttle and engine load through the rpm band. At about 2k a clatter starts and then passes. If I let up a little and the rpm drops down, it passes through the clatter again then goes away.
