When I accelerate to 6000 there's a slight high frequency vibration in my clutch pedal when shifting from 1st to 2nd (haven't tried that high 2nd to 3rd). It can't be felt in the seat or in the gear shift. Is this normal? This is my first 997, but my old 911s did not have it as I remember, but that was a long trime ago.

get to mechanic and let him feel it. I was at dealer with complaints over my clutch bearing noise (which went away on its own) and mechanic also told me he felt some slight vibration on clutch pedal when depressed and it would be good enough reason to take it apart in a car on warranty.

i still did not have time to get to it, need to do it sooner or later.

 

Oddly, I noticed the same issue on my vehicle starting about a week ago. When I press the clutch in while moving, the pedal seems to Buzz. It isn't that bad, but you can certainly feel it. I wonder if it is common? i emailed my service manager to see what his thoughts were. My car has 8500 miles on a pretty gently used clutch.

 

I have a friend who experienced the same thing . It drove him so nuts that after weeks he told me that he would not have bought the car . Since he lives in aother state I never drove his car but his business associate ans his service advisor each tried to replicate the vibration . Neither could and they chalked it up to his driving style. He was so upset at that point that I offered to put him in touch with some guys in my region to talk over the phone about it. He described the symptom and they expressed that although most won't notice the vibration it is normal . They even started up a C4S while one the phone with him and replicated it. At this point he didn't know what to do . They explained that both the Gt3 and the Turbo do NOT have the vibration.

He traded his car for a Turbo . His vibration worries were over. Sadly though .. he didn't keep the Turbo . He never felt comfortable driving a car that was so expensive and he sold the car .
