Consumer Description
6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION - WHEN COMING TO STOP QUICKLY FROM HIGH SPEED, CLUTCH IS FULLY DEPRESSED (AND EVEN SOMETIMES IN NEUTRAL), THE ENGINE RPMS DROP VERY LOW CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SHUDDER. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING CONSISTENTLY FOR OVER 1 YEAR BUT DEALERSHIP HAS CLAIMED THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING DUE TO THE FACT THE ENGINE COULD STALL CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL. THIS SEEMS VERY SIMILAR TO THE SYMPTOMS OF A BAD TORQUE CONVERTER AS RECALLED ON THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, HOWEVER, OBVIOUSLY THIS CAN'T BE THE CASE FOR A MT. *TR
