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.

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

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Specs: new 04 996 coupe, manual, now 600 miles. This may sound like a trivial or silly question but I do a lot of stop and go driving at bridges and tunnels in NYC with frequent up and down shifting from 1st to 2nd while creeping along at about 10mph. At very low RPMs (creeping along at 10mph) I hear and feel a �thunk� when shifting from 1st to 2nd. But, with RPMs a little higher the shift from 1st to 2nd is smooth. Is this �thunk� just torque from the clutch at low RPMs? I don�t sense it as a problem, just a bit disconcerting. Thanks in advance.

POST 2Original post

I used to feel something similar when I picked my car up. I say 'used' to because either: a) I have become used to it; b) I have learned to not do whatever does it; c) It has gone away; The last one seems the least likely. Do you work in the city and drive in each day? I use a park and ride instead to save all the low speed work and hassle with idiots trying to force themselves into my lane. It's a lot cheaper too...

POST 3Original post

I only shift down to first on complete stops, otherwise I stay on second. I don't know which is better, I am curious to know.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I only use my car for weekend drives but there is still heavy stop and go traffic. The 'thunk' is very subtle and I have to pay attention in order to feel it. That's what makes me think that it is torque. oh well, forgive me for being paranoid. -Jay

POST 5Original post

I usually only shift to 1st at stops but you can blip the throttle and allow the syncros to mesh and then it will go into first although it really isn't that easy especially when the oil temp is cold even if the water is ok-
