Hey guys, lately i have gotten to realise the sound that my car makes, i think this relates to stick shift only. I tend to hear it whenever I either purposely try to move off in a gear shouldnt be moving off in (2nd gear) or when you are coming to a stop, car is going real slow and you just purposely fail to press the clutch before stalling. The sound is like this rattling sound, i guess in result from the engine slightly vibrating/struggling? Does anyone know this sound? Is it something needs tightnening up or is it just normal.?

 

Thats totally normal. Its clutch rattle as i call it. Im not saying you dont know how to drive stick but if your a decent driver you should never hear it.

 

ok, so its normal.please consider that i did say i pruposely do this.

 

yeah its normal but don't do it

 

Ye why would you purposely do that. I mean its normal but not healthy for the clutch or engine. I always use the excuse, its better to give it more gas than too little, lol.

 

It is the engine beginning to bog down and starve for fuel. Completely normal.

 

ok....this is what happened guys, i didnt know what it was, i found out what to do to hear it, and did it this pass week and was trying to figure out what it was until i decided i would ask on the org.

 

no problem, its always good to know
