6MT jerky ride with low load / damaged flywheel?

Blech Büchse · 11-12-2019, 02:12 AM

Hi guys,

My manual transmission Camaro has a slightly jerky ride with low load applied. You feel it the best when you are in 2nd, 3rd or 4th gear around 1500 rpm and so that you only apply very little throttle.
With higher load or pressing the clutch it disappears.

Could this be the flywheel or any other kind of damper in the drivetrain? A dealer told me that there are no other dampers like hardy disks or something like this in the Camaro drivetrain. Is that right, is there only the flywheel?

Thx for your help.

There's nothing wrong except your choice of gear and RPM range is all wrong. Even 2d at 1500 is rough RPM to be at. It's your fault not the car.
