How is it usually said?  Your results may vary.

I'm currently "virtually" chatter free.  The current clutch (new old stock) 
has less than 200 miles.  I expect (hope) that it will wear in and shut up.

Have been chatter free in the past...  Prior to bell housing seal leak.

So far (after fix) everything is dry.  Fingers crossed.
