Default Shaders when engaging clutch.

Hi guys,

I noticed that when I release my foot from the clutch without any push on the gas pedal my car works fine. However, when I release the clutch with push on the gas pedal the car shaders (I think that the gear or something shakes). By the way, I only have 5500 miles on it.

did anyone went through this problem?

Help please!

Sounds like the clutch plates are slipping. I'm far from an expert, and there are those here who are, but many years ago the clutch was adjustable. I don't know if the clutch on an a Corvette is or not. How's your clutch fluid? Somebody will probably tell you that you need to change the fluid fairly often.

I'm basically just pushing your post back to the top.

I assume you mean shudders. Simple version, the clutch is self adjusted.
Not really enough info but have you driven a manual trans before...have you checked the clutch fluid...are you lighting up the tires?

No I haven't checked the fluid, and yes I use to have 4 manual trans cars before. I didn't go hard on the car yet. It not that I don't know how drive a stick, but I took it to the dealer and they said its fine. So, I am really confused now.
