2013 Track Pack GT Clutch Shutter
Hello. Strange issue with my car...
When first bought for first couple months, the clutch was butter... Perfect engagement into all gears (I thought too good) and it was effortless... Now, for past couple weeks, the engagement into gears has become very inconsistent and rough/shutter/hesitation-ish.
When leaving from a stop, the clutch engagement makes the car practically buck no matter how easy I try to take off. Also, when taking off from a stop, there is a feeling of almost a double engagement. The first initial engagement which gets the car going and you can feel it clamp on, then another when the pedal reaches the top of the travel. Very odd.. it has gotten so bad recently that sometimes it feels like a bucking bronco trying to innocently take off from a stop...
Any ideas? Bad slave cylinder? Something messed up in the hydraulics? Clutch issue? Throwout bearing?
Not used to hydraulic clutches and not sure what this could really be... Definitely planning on taking it in after I get my body work dealt with...

My 2013 was acting weird high reving in low gears but I had just come off a bad tune so I went to Steeda dumped that bad tune got a Triax Shifter and now I'm in heaven. Shifts beautifully now, very quick. Hope you didn't get a bad tune because that might be it
