It seems I may have a problem as well. In first I get very little acceleration from about 4500 to 6500 RPM, feels really weak. All other gears seem good, and I love the acceleration in second and third, but can't go faster then 25mph in first. Odd, anyone else have similar issues.
well i got my car back on friday with new clutch flywheel and pressure plate, works perfect now no grinding and thrid doesn't move as much as it used to as far as thrid gm said there is no real fix. but now it grabs 10 times better and this is suposed to be an updated verson of the clutch, but i'm warning everyone you should bring it back asap becasue the gm rep came down and gave them a hard time about warrentying becasue its owned by a younger driver and they were saying it had the crawp kicked out of it which it hasn't, it get beaten a lil bit. i had all the problems the first day i picked it up and i didn't bring it in till 1100 miles and they finally got the parts in when i had 2100 so good lcuk to everyone thank god i didn't have to pay for anything

I think I'm having problems with the clutch also. However my problem isnt really with grinding the gears, however it seems as if my clutch isnt releasing. For example if I floor it from a stop the car acts like I still have the clutch somewhat pushed in even though its not and if i try to give it more gas its very sluggish, and I can smell the clutch. It really only happens when I floor it from a stop and it doesnt happen all the time but it does happen a majority of the time. Ive tried launching from 0 rpms and at 2k rpms and its the same thing, which really sucks. From a roll when i floor it (anywhere between 25-45) it flies but off the line it is having this problem. What do you guys think this is? Should I take it in? Do you think they'll give me a rental car if i take it in or am I going to be without a car? What should I tell the service department? Should I tell them I'm floring it off the line and this is happening or should I just tell them that the clutch seems to be sticking when I'm driving it? Any and all your guys help would be appreciated, thanks.

I honestly take offense to that last post, I do not at all think you are qualified to call me a bad driver, knowing nothing about how I drive, Ive driven a manual for the past 4 years now and never once had this problem, didnt have the problem when i took the cobalt off the lot or the first month and half that I had the car, the clutch is "sticking", if you dont have anything positive to contribute to a thread please dont post on our forums, thanks.

As an edit to my first post on this thread, or rather an addition, if i am in neutral not pushing in the clutch at all and I rev the engine to high rpms, they are very slow to go back to idle, they stay at about 4k rpms and slowly drop for several seconds after taking my foot off the gas, is this happening on anyone elses Cobalt? It seems to do the same thing when im trying to launch off the line, like its sticking or something...
