Hi everybody,

Did you experience some transmssion clearance that seems excessive in your C6 ? I mean, at low or medium speeds, when you hit and release the gas pedal, you feel a soft "clonc" like something in the transmission wasn't tightened.

There is transmission clearance in all vehicles, but it seems a bit more accentuated in my car. I have to be careful to reaccelerate gently to avoid this kind of hit in the transmission. It's annoying when I try to brake urgently as this soft clong changes in a big "CLONC".

Do you think it could come form the front end subframe bolts that are not enough tightened, or altered drive shafts or problem in the automatic gearbox ???

I already changed the rear motor mount that was a bit old, it improved but not erased the problem.

Thank you for your help.

This is one of the things I want to have a look at this week, I've noticed this over the last couple of days
