I just got a new 08z MT, and it seems like the clutch is making a chattering noise when it's in neutral. The noise goes away if the clutch is pushed in. I've been driving MT for a long time and never had this problem before. Should I take it to the dealer? I barely have about 1,000 miles on it!

 

its normal..
its the flywheel chatter...

im pretty sure this happens to everyone who drives a manual z

 

That noise is all normal. The xmsn housing on the Z is kind of "clunky". The noise generates from been a dry clutch system. On some cars the noise is louder than others.

 

I've noticed that once the car warms up (probably the tranny actually) the noise goes away.

 

Noise is normal.You got real honest information here so you could at least get rid of the DOT.Opps my bad,wrong guy
