Vibration in clutch pedal at high-rpm shifts.

Anyone have this issue when shifting at >5000 rpm?
Nothing seems to be wrong except for this vibratory sensation in the clutch pedal when it is depressed.

Yes, I have experienced some of this early-on but with 3500 miles now, it seems to have gone away.

I've been able to hear what sounds like the throw out bearing sometimes under a load. Not so loud that it sounds broken, but loud enough to hear and make you wary.

Haven't felt it, but to be honest my shifts happen pretty quick above 5000rpm.

I remember this discussion from a thread awhile back... After owning several "manual" shifted vehicles, the only ones I had any vibration feel in the clutch pedal were "mechanical linkage" types. The TL, having a hydraulic clutch - like your brake system, should not have any "feedback" in the pedal when it comes to engine vibration. If you do have a vibration or something better described as a "pulsating" feel, something may be amiss with the throw-out bearing or pressure-plate. It's hard to say. Most likely it's a normal characteristic of the car....

Definitely bring it to the attention of your service dept when the time presents itself. Document your question/concern on a work order etc.
