not really. It generally happens when the car is still cold. When you engage the clutch in 1st or 2nd you feel it shaking or chattering. It quite pronounced so hard to miss I think. Generally, it stops doing it once the car is warmed up. I think it generally occurs around 15K miles. Did for me anyway.

Its not a recall item but there's a fix and your dealer will replace the clutch under warantee if you have this problem.

However, what you describe sound more like you don't quite have the clutch off throttle on timing down.

The fix includes a new clutch, pressure plate and all the necessary nuts & bolts & springs. They only replace the flywheel if you are under 30k.
