Hello all, I'm new to the forum; however, I have been following the posts for some time now. I am hoping to get some insight on a problem that I am seeing with my new C6. When the engine is at high RPM's the clutch begins to fall to the floor. To be more precise, it requires very little foot pressure to disengage the Pressure Plate. An example maybe more relevant:

When under heavy acceleration and high RPM, the clutch pedal will already be at a point where it is almost to the floor. Spring tension would still see the clutch in an outward position; however, very minimal foot weight will push the clutch down to the point where it disengages.

I went to my friendly GM dealer and they had their Corvette guy confirm that... "Yeah that's definitely not right" only to have a call from the controller to say "It is normal operation of the C6 clutch mechanism" . They did humor me and let me REV a new C6 on the lot in Neutral and it did indeed exhibit the same characteristic. My thoughts are, even if this is the same on most Corvette's, it's still wrong; the pressure plate should not lift under high RPM. Once cars begin getting a few miles on them the clutches will begin slipping and that will really suck. GM's take on it is "If it's not slipping then we cannot do anything about it"

 

I've had that happen just one time a few months ago. I can't explain it, but it hasn't happened again.
If it happens again, I'll bring it in.
It might be fun to try and power shift it that way...might as well blow it all up while on warranty!
