I've noticed recently that my car jerksor bucks alot when accelerating from a dead stop and when shifting in the lower gears. It's getting harder and harder to shift smoothly. It never used to do this, and I am starting to get worried. Is my clutch going out? If not, what else could be going on?

Thank you in advance for any advice.

Mine does it also but I have the 4:10 in bumper to bumper traffic mod [:@]

 

How long have you had your mods? I just did the Hurst shifter, delete plates, intake and a tune and I've noticed exactly the same problem. I dont know if its the mods or if I just need to relearn how to drive since putting them in. Doesnt happen all the time.

 

I have the ram and its work great My buddy has the same set up with the mcloid thats seams to be better then what i have

 

Mine does the same thing and I had the exact same question. I doubt it's the clutch because I don't have any "slipping" to speak of. It just very jerky and quick on the engagement. Let me know if you figure anything out.

 

Mine does that also, but I have the bad knee mod (good thing it's not a daily driver).

 

sounds like its just the tune. that and we all suck at driving 5spd's. lol.

 

I've been driving manuals most of my driving career. My 07 just has a few hundred miles on it. I've noticed when I'm at a light; have it in neutral, it makes this strange sound, and going into first is not very smooth sounding. If I'm at the light and push in the clutch, that sound goes away. I'll mention to my dealer guy, but thought I'd write about it here too. Anyone else notice this??
