Hi there-

from a complete stop putting on the tranny (in first) the car will hiccup like its going to die, in all other gears its fine.

I tested this out and it turns out it happens when the car is just started up and once warmed up if I let off the clutch before 1.5 rpms

It doesn't feel like its slipping but it does feel like a pretty good shake-

it is not a as bad of a shake as if you are coming to a complete stop and didn't put your clutch in so the car doesn't die

Hi Aimeekeys,

The symptoms described seems to indicate an engine ignition problem rather than the clutch.

Check the spark plugs and test the wires resistance.

Is the Check Engine Light showing?
