Intermitent Chatter when taking off in 1st gear on 2010 rt-s

[TroyboyRn]

HEllo all

I was wondering if anyone had some ideas. I just had my 2010 rt-s laser aligned and new rubber on the back. This week. (What A world of difference) i started getting a chattering when accelerating intermittently from a dead start. I checked the oil and was a bit low so i added some of the same brand my dealer uses. It no longer stalls but every 5th start (acceleration from dead stop it chatterers/gags) Once i get going in 2nd gear it shifts fine and accelerates well with no other issues. No error codes ever thrown. I am not quite due for an oil change but scheduled one for next week. Could this be the problem or is there something else i should be looking into.

Thanks
Troy

I might guess that you've got some clutch plates that are sticking a bit... :shocked:

I have the same issue on my 2013. Sounds awful when it happens. The best description is it's close to the chatter produced if you try to drive a manual tranny away from a dead stop in a higher gear. The dealer says many 2013s have the issue but they don't know how to fix it. I also have occasional stalling issues. Not a very satisfactory answer. No codes are produced. I plan to upgrade to a '14 or '15, so I'm going to let them worry about it. Please let us know if you find a solution.

Have to agree..!!

:agree: check oil level condition and when you had the change of filters and oil done. If your not ryding much or far you may need a hard run to loosen things up and flush disks and plates...:thumbup

If this started happening after you had the tire put on in the rear, is it possible they over tightened the rear shaft causing the bearings to be pinched a bit. Just a thought.
