Dealer wants me to bring it back when their Z specialist is in town. Service Advisor couldn't hear or feel it......yet when I got back in the car I felt it immediately.

After driving it with me, he said the car acted like it was double-clutching...weird....lol.....I said, you mean the rev-sync? He didn't know what that even was.

I can't believe this sound and feeling is considered normal. If I had a lighter flywheel, I'd expect this....is the stock 370Z flywheel light compared to a 350Z flywheel?
I don't know whether to laugh or cry about the SA's comment about double clutching!

I get this, too. It is more noticable sometimes. From what I've read here it is "normal" for these cars. Until of course you need a new clutch or throw out bearing.

I'll probably bring it to the attention of the SA when I go in for service (this will be my first service appt.) just to get it on record in case something goes wrong down the road.
