I never noticed this when I test drove my car....But when you're upshifting between gears (especially 1st going to 2nd), the RPMs take forever to come down, im guessing due to a heavy flywheel?
The concern i have is that when im accelerating (even normal-brisk) when I want to shift from 1st into 2nd, I have to wait a few seconds for the RPMs to come down before it revmatches and I can bump it into 2nd. Otherwise, If i shift into 2nd then I get the jerk as the clutch forces the RPMs down....and leads to more clutch wear. Kinda makes it hard to accelerate quickly since im always waiting for the RPMs.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Also, where does your clutches grab? mine starts about halfway up and fully engages about 3/4 of the way up, was like this since the day I got it from the dealer. Test drove the Focus ST and it grabs right off the floor.
