    Hey all -- anyone else ever have this issue? Many mornings (but not all) my truck hesitates/shudders the first time or two that I let off the clutch to get it going. After that it's fine and smooth all day. Truck is a 2013 V6 6-Speed Manual with 32K on it. Any thoughts?

    Mine does the same thing, so I just feather the clutch a little more to get going. I just chock it up to a cold transmission.

    Yea, I've always been OK thinking it may be normal, but then got to thinking maybe it was an issue like moisture in the clutch fluid or something leaking on the clutch plate. Curious to see if a lot of others have the issue. Thanks for the reply.
