dont know what to do about my tranny. please help guys!!!

my friend has a 2010 LS camaro M6 and i drove it. his clutch feels so much softer and easier to use than mine.

my car has 14K miles on it and its driven like this since day 1, the clutch is SO SO SO stiff. i mean i cant even describe it, its the worst thing ever. i thought it was normal until i drove my friends car.

and on hard acceleration i cant shift from 1st to 2nd without grinding gears. my foot is COMPLETELY pressed on the clutch. all the other gears are fine.

i want to take it to the dealer but im scared that they will make me pay for replacing it, is this under warranty?

i took it a few months ago and the service guy said that there was nothing wrong with it and that all clutches felt like that, and then i went to sit in a 2011 v6 and it felt like my friends camaro. i was mad to say the least.

Then take the service guy to site in a 2011 on the lot and ask him why that cars clutches fells so mach better, Here read this and take it to your dealer if your car was made in this time.

You can bring it in with or without the PDF... Bottom line is you have a problem that they need to address to your satisfaction. Have them drive your car and then one off the lot and compare the difference...
