So, when you're in 3rd gear and moving and apply then let off the gas, do you see the shift lever moving .... ??

If so, the motor mounts (and/or transmission mount) may be lose or broken.....

Have they checked/replaced the motor mounts .... ??

Tbh Ultramaroon i don't think i could capture it as it's not all the time and only on certain patches of road. Now the rear parcel shelf has started buzzing again and the dealer thought they had just fixed it lol

Now Humfrz i do noticed the shifter vibrate sometimes which i did thought was strange on a modern car. When i change into 3rd and move the lever it's as if it wobbles bit left and right before moving into place if that makes sense..and doesn't move into place in one clean movement like you'd expect it to and have felt on previous MT cars. So maybe the trans mounts are bad. I know some people on here have had the newer shifter part and also on our uk forum (gt86ownersclub).

The dealer never mentioned anything being loose though but the car is booked in for Monday so will mention these all again to them. I know last time i was in they were trying to fob me off by saying rattles shouldn't really be covered now due to only having 18 months of the warranty left. It's a bit of a joke really and sorry to have a moan but when you've come from bimmers etc you really can see the quality difference in the products. I know german cars have their issues too but still...

My mother used to have a UK spec TT MKIV Supra with 326bhp as standard and the build quality on that was superb..built like a tank! i know that was a dearer car but i didn't expect this many issues on a newish Japanese car..
