Question Vibrating Clutch on new car

Hello everyone

I just got a new 08 cobalt SS (sport coupe) and my clutch vibrates when the car is in gear and the clutch is pressed down about half way, when its all the way to the flore or all the way up i don't feal anything. Have any of you out there had this.

My question is is this normal because its a new car? or is this bad?

Thanks in advance.

clutches take a little while to break in (500 miles???), this may be what your experiencing

Thanks for the super fast reply, that makes me feal better, true i got less than 300K but this does not feal right some how, that vibrating feals kind of rough. Its when it at around 3000rpm, when im driving around in a parking lot its fine. Perhaps its because this is the first new car with a new clutch that i drove.

Thanks again

300km...

and when the clutch is half way up, are you giving it any gas? If no, then its vibrating cause the clutch is engaging.
