Default Shifter Vibration/Movement

Did a search and didn't see these specific issues.

The shifter on my ZR vibrates when the engine is running. This vibration is rather suggestive, but not alarming.

Also, when I'm in third or fourth gear the shifter moves forward a little bit (1/8th to 1/4 of an inch) when I accelerate. When I take my foot off the gas it moves back. It doesn't do this in the other gears.

Is this normal?

In addition, when I'm starting from a dead stop going uphilll into first, I sometimes get a knocking sound from the engine. I do use 92 octane gas. Do I just need to refine my shifting technique?

Before I take it in I want to be armed with some info so I don't embarass myself. Thanks.

I get the same vibrations, slight movement of the shift. It has diminished somewhat with more miles (now 3k). I would not worry about that.
