Hi all,
Hoping this is in the right place for the forum and that it's nothing but wanted to get some feedback:
When I'm at a complete stop, put the car in reverse (it's an MT with 650 miles for context), and try to get moving, it sounds like the brakes are maybe sticking a bit? There's some resistance when letting out the clutch where it feels like the car is trying to overcome that resistance, and then it pops (not audibly) and then gets moving. I could be imagining this, but I think it seems like this happens less often when moving forward...or maybe I'm just giving it a bit more gas as I let the clutch out when I'm moving forward as opposed to when I'm reversing and being more careful.
Is this worth a trip to the dealership to have it checked out? I know it's not the parking brake because I'm being sure I disengage every time and it'll still sometimes have that initial resistance or slight sticking. Not sure what to think...it's my first MT car in a few years but can't remember my old MT cars doing this. Plus, it doesn't seem driveline related and seems like it's occurring around the brakes/wheels.
Thanks!
