So the problem is as follows:
- when the engine is cold (in the morning, about 0 to +4 C degrees outside), I push the clutch pedal to the floor, engage 1st gear, rpm at ~ 2300 and slowly releasing the clutch pedal. Somewhere at the middle of the clutch pedal course, when the car starts to move there is a vibration I can feel all over the car body (and the dash is vibrating).
- if I am releasing the clutch pedal faster, the car will move forward without vibrations (maybe the tyres will scream a little if the rpm is higher).
- when it comes to change to 2nd gear, it is a bit difficult to move the gear lever... I must force it a little.
- after the engine is hot (~ 5 km on the city traffic, waiting at traffic lights...) when engaging 1st gear and slowly releasing the clutch pedal, the vibration of the car body and dash is stronger then when the engine is cold. At this point, my passenger airbag starts to vibrate inside the dash compartment making a noise similar to a phone vibrating on a plastic table. This happens somewhere at the middle of the clutch pedal course.
Again, if I am releasing the clutch pedal very fast, the vibration is no longer present...
- now, with the engine hot, the 2nd gear is very easily to engage, smoothly without forcing the lever.
I don't know exactly what the problem is... the clutch, the gearbox or one engine support... all I know is that when the engine is cold the vibrations are less pronounced, and they are increased after making ~5 km on town traffic and the engine heats up...
