so the other night after work i got in my car and press the clutch and it feels like a shuttering/pulsating vibration as i press and release the clutch. at first i thought maybe the clutch cable was to tight so today i loosen it but still the same problem. honestly i have no idea what the problem is...hopefully someone else has had this problem and could help me out. oh just to mention its an adjustable steeda clutch cable.

Well unfortunately if it is clutch related it can only be so many things.. Throwout bearing, clutch, flywheel.. Is the transmission engaging alright?

the clutch is only a year old and the throw out bearing is good....no squealing noise. plus it spins freely

Maybe the prongs on the pressure plate, I had a similar problem, buy my clutch was gone and they played around with the pressure plate. Hard to tell

what could go wrong with the metal fingerthings on the pressure plate that would cause this problem?

Different loads of pressure on the clutch, grab a haynes or chiltons manual and it'll show you a couple of examples

its weird tho cuz the problem just randomly happened. it honestly feels like the clutch cable is getting hung up on something. tomorrow i am going to re route it and see how that goes.
