Drivetrain Chatter?

2014 Premier Edition, MN7. 5100 miles, no racing, no tracking, easy driving. When in stop and go traffic, on and off the clutch in 1st. gear, when you let out the clutch there seems to be a lot of "Chatter" from the drivetrain when you release the pressure off of it via depressing the clutch. My 2009 C6 never made a noise, so this sounds odd to me. Is this normal for the C7's or is this something I should have the dealer look in to?

Thank All.

I have not noticed any unusual drive train chatter such as you describe. If it is that noticeable I would have it checked out just to be on the safe side.

I would also be interested if anyone else has experienced this. It's going in for the winter-sleep oil change next week and I'll ask the question.

I notice this on occasion. Generally when I'm not giving it enough throttle.

I only get a little chatter if I get sloppy in clutch release. Usually it's a matter of RPMs being a little low.
