I thought this was the TCS at first as the traction light will often come on but I tried this with the TCS off and it still does it. Its a shake similar to when you release the clutch too quickly as if the clutch were bouncing. It this normal for this car or do I have a clutch issue?
At what rpm does this happen? To see if the clutch is slipping, put it in 5th and floor it at low rpm. If the rpm shot up without corresponding acceleration, the clutch is on its way out.
