I recently got my MacBook and the trackpad/palm area has a twanging sound when you tap firmly....it's shown in this YouTube video:

Is there an existing thread about this? The trackpad works fine, which is a reason I haven't brought it in yet. But it does seem weird that I bought a 4000$ aluminum cowbell

Yep. Had the top case replaced TWICE, and I'm pretty sure this will be a recurring problem, just like the sticky keys. For me it usually manifests after a couple of weeks after a replacement
