Vibration would concern me (initially) a bit more than the noise, but you have two good reasons to get the car checked out. If you're getting that much vibration, there is an issue. I would take it in for a check. Better to know that something more serious develops.

I'll bet the noise is normal but the vibration isn't. Mine is a smooth as silk since I bleed the clutch. You might want to try that before you go further. I had a vibration in an older car and it turned out to be a warped pressure plate. I hope that's not your problem.
