I recently purchased a 2005 RSX Type-S and noticed that the clutch vibrates. Can anyone provide some insight as to why it is doing this, and if it is a bad thing?

What do you mean the clutch vibrates?! Need more description....


the pedal vibrates? The clutch chatters a lot? In neutral? In gear? While driving? WHAT/WHEN?!?!

That is all

you know if it still has the original clutch and how many miles on it?

My clutch will chatter sometimes when it's really cold outside before the car has warmed up.. That's about it though.

The pedal vibrates in neutral and while in gear while I drive.

I believe that it is the original clutch, and it has 84k miles on it.

I will make sure to double check if the clutch stops vibrating after the car heats, up, thanks!

The pedal vibrates? Why are you touching the clutch pedal if you're not shifting?

I'm a beginner so I try to rest, not apply ANY pressure whatsoever on the clutch while I'm driving just in case I need to suddenly stop because of careless drivers. I can feel it vibrating under my shoes.

Does the rest of the car seem to vibrate in general? Or are you only feeling it through the pedal?

You might just be feeling vibration from the engine. If it seems excessive I would check your motor mounts to make sure they're not torn. The mounts can get torn over time.
