Derek, did you by any chance just lower your car or put in a new d/s? Mine did that with the aluminum d/s. When I put on the adj uca and the stock d/s it went away. Just a idea.
No, I didn't lower it and no suspension or drivetrain work done yet.. That's why it's so confusing to me... All I've done is exhaust and intake basically, so there is no reason it should be doing that. I've had people in my car that definitely know their way around a car, some say it feels like the clutch, some say it feels like the rear end. We can't pinpoint it at all, so the Service guy said he's just gonna start throwing parts at it under warranty starting with the pressure plate to see if we can fix the problem that way... So I can see a possibly long and tedious road ahead of me of going back and forth to the dealership........ annoying

I have the Fidanza 4.6 and SMOKED it at the track. I have called Fidanza and the guy says they will replace it( if I send it to them and they deem it to be difective) But they will not cover the labor. I am not sure what will happen yet but this could get ugly!

the pressure plate is where the extra clamping force comes from. Replacing the clutch disk with an aftermarket one and using a stock pressure plate is just silly.

You will get a free install, if you want an aftermarket clutch, then you'll have to pay for it.
