We have been driving manual shift cars for about 25-30 years and have never had a problem like this. We already had the clutch,clutch plate,flywheel, and slave cylinder replaced when there was less than 4,000 miles on the car. Now we are having the same problem again. It happens to me from 1st to 2nd and I do not use the launch mode at all. I know that I donot know how to use it so I do not even try. GM is saying that we do not know how to drive our cars or that it happens when we use launch mode. I read my owners manual again yesterday and it specifies to let off the clutch slowly which is exactly what we do. Our fluid is contaminated again which worries me because it is also the brake fluid. GM wants the car back but that will not happen anytime soon. Ours was among the first 8,000 built. This means that it has a lot of things on or in it that GM no longer does. Now they are saying to fix it and the dealer told them that everything would have to be replaced about every 8 months the way things are going. GM did not like that answer either so now we don't know what is going on with it. We don not appreciate people saying that we do not know how to drive our car or that we are letting our foot rest on the clutch. We just laughed at that one. GM knows that there is a problem and they just don't know how to fix it. They need to get it together if they are going to continue producing this car with a manual trans. We would love to buy a Z if they do come out but there is no way if they can't fix this major problem.
