Same problem here. Once the car is warmed up everytime I disengage the clutch my whole car would start shaking like a broken *****. not just vibrating, the whole car shakes. Its so annoying and makes me look like I'm a newbie stick driver. I went to the dealership once and all they did was lubricated the clutch, it fixed it for like 2 months and now its back again. Clutch shakes like hell!

dealership checked my Clutch they said its still new. what year is your car? Mine's an 05 Enth. Im thinking maybe the throwout bearing.

Sounds like a Throwout Bearing to me. They do start to wear overtime.
