| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Clutch shudder, especially when driving vehicle for the first time each day. the whole drivetrain/exhaust will shake as you engage the clutch. as the vehicle warms up, the problem is less noticeable. starting around 20k miles. also, "ringing" noise in 5th gear (6 speed transmission) under load since new. retailer will not fix, and was told this is just a harmonic in the transmission that is due to machining tolerances. interior of vehicle gets very hot. there does not seem to be enough insulation around transmission/exhaust as floor is very warm to the touch.*ak |
