    Hey guys, I have an '05 Tacom trd v6 6-speed with only 39k on the odometer. I'm having an odd issue shifting into first from a stop. With the clutch fully depressed and putting it into first, the truck moves forward just a little. It's not much like the auto lurch but i do notice it. Also it only does this going into first that i have noticed. oh, and if i keep it depressed and go in and out of first, it only does it that first time, but if I let off the clutch, then do it again it will do it. Anybody else have this problem, know what it is or how to fix it? Thanks


    OH, and I know there are a lot of clutch issues brought up in the forums, and I did do some searching. I did not find anything about this particular issue though

    I wouldn't worry about it too much. how does the fluid level look in your clutch reservoir. Any noticeable leaks?

    I'm thinking it may have something to do with the clutch plate not fully disengaging, or is worn out?
