Wierd Vibrations........

Ok when I'm idoling on a hill and I'm trying to level the clutch... I get this wierd vibration noise and it hesitates like its slipping, but when I'm not on a hill and I level the clutch with the gas its just fine... Would there be any reason or possibility why this is doing this?
Help would be appreciated thank you!

i'm pretty sure its because you're on a hill and it takes more energy for your motor to push your heavy *** car up a hill then get it rolling on flat ground. ......but thats just what common sense tells me.

But who knows.......you should try giving it more gas.

The car isn't heavy, its only 2500 lbs, maybe even less.... It sounds like something is rubbing. I don't know. Its hard to put the sound and feeling into words.

how new is the clutch
a metallic clutch with pucks instead of an organic disc would have a vibration when letting it out
or it could be the disc going bad
if it was the mount it would do it when u are driving hard too

The clutch is about a month in a half old.... not too old..... And I've been driving lightly on it. It s a 4 puck unsprung act clutch....... But if it was going bad, wouldn't it do it also on a straight away?
