Default Clutch grabs and shutters after sitting overnight.

Back it out of the garage and it grabs, not a real smooth or linear engagement. Seems fine by the time I get out of the drive. Dealer says it is normal - condensation. I think it may be a slow leak or something getting on the clutch of my 04 w/20,000 mi.

Any ideas?

Default Looks like...

I'll have to rely on the dealership for a resolution to this one.

Default Stay on top of it...

Make a record.. have it looked at with the dealer. Even if it means dropping it off.

AoA is bad with clutch warranty claims..unless you have a history of problems/complaints.

Default FYI

I made sure to mention that since I bought my '02 CPO 6 SP M it's always driven with my entire family inside, I downshift at almost every light and my wife and I are 6'3" with amazon kids. At 36K they are r/r the f/w, cltch and t/o bearing. I also found out the mechanics like Jamba Juice when it's almost 100 in the service bays.
