Clutch Chatter!
I just took delivery of an 06 GT and I've already noticed a slight vibration when releasing the clutch in first gear. It's very minor but I know it's there and it pisses me off.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it possible it might work itself out?

Sorry, I don't have any clutch problems on my GT.
Maybe it would help if I actually had a GT.

Yes. It's moderate at times on my car. It gets less with time(or it has on mine at 3k miles now). There are a bunch of threads about it on fordgtforum.com, but nobody has anything major.

It seems to have corrected itself. Thanks for the info DBK.

My clutch started doing it after I fried it one time. It seems to be slowly working it's way out though.

KRAZY,
I called Ford and they said that while you are away, you'll have to leave me the keys to drive it daily and work that clutch chatter out.
Something about voiding a warranty or something like that if you don't do that.
Although it is a big imposition on me asking me to spend my valuable time working that out for you, I don't mind doing it.
Sometimes I think I'm so nice and considerate, I make Mother Theresa look like a bitch.
