This is my first Maxima and first manual transmission car I have owned. I was just wondering about my car giving a little vibration kind of moan (not noise just clutch feel) when I accelarate with the clutch halfway in (mostly first gear start-up). Is it supposed to do this? the car I learned to drive on manual with did not do this.

 

sounds like differental bearings going bad... anyways what do I know im just a automatic driver... whats your AIM so I can send you a video of what the differental bearings sound like when there going out..

 

Sounds like a slight bit of clutch chatter not diff bearings. As long as your clutch isn't slipping, don't worry about it.

 

damn you 5-spds I wont one of those THINGS.. hmm.. converison...

 

first gear has a wine to it, if you don't hear anything when your in neutral your fine.

 

thanks guys! and no, it's not too much of a sound as a vibration.
