Stalling Question

newyen27 · 07-15-2011, 10:57 PM

Hello all, I am a proud owner of a new 370z. I havent drove a manual car in more than 5 years and stalled several times going home. After I got the hang of it and calmed down from the initial panic I heard some noises when starting off in first from the transmission. Is this normal? Or did I just damage my tranny?

Thanks

What kind of noises?

How did you stall it "pretty hard"? Just dumped the clutch with no throttle, or what?

Probably normal noises that you are just paranoid about is my guess.

Well I stalled it several ways that being one of them. It was mostly not feeling the clutch engage and releasing too soon with too much gas. I'm not used to how deep the clutch pedal goes.. The noises are light clanking noises.

the trans makes a lot of noise so, depending on exactly when you hear the clanking it could be normal or not.
