Suggestion

No abuse also, driven with gusto on mountain roads but using all the mechanic sympathy, I think I never made a standing start using high revs with my car.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

My CS is 15k miles, never tracked, when I engage 1st gear (or reverse) to start moving I feel a very slight vibration thorugh the steering wheel on the clutch "bite" point. It appears to be only noticeable when starting from cold and I don't feel that after moving and changing between gears. I don't recall the car doing this when new, I'm afraid some clutch problem is emminent and my warranty is expiring in two months. I took it to the dealer but this being a (at least for now) subtle I got the "no problem sir" reply pronto. Is this normal, anyone feels the same?

POST 2Original post

Mine doesn't vibrate at all. Does/has anyone driven your car that may have slipped the clutch excessively, which introduces extra heat and the potential for warpage. With abuse, it is possible to damage most any clutch system. A friend of mine had her (Saab) clutch toasted badly by a valet parker...

POST 3Original post

No one as ever put their mittens on my car No abuse also, driven with gusto on mountain roads but using all the mechanic sympathy, I think I never made a standing start using high revs with my car.

POST 4Original post

I can't say I felt a vibration through the steering wheel, but there was a jerky feeling when engaging 1st from a stand-still. I too was wondering if I needed to visit the dealer under warranty, but there was a moment when I needed to pull out into traffic quickly and accidently rode the clutch a little...problem solved. My guess is that there was some residue/oxide build-up on my plate than burned off when I rode the clutch. Its been 6 months and have not felt it return. Just my experience...
