Mine clunks and then likes to pop out of gear just as I'm pulling away.
I read somewhere that some people hold their gearsticks in place when cornering at speed in to prevent it sometimes vacating on sending the car into a spin.
I'm sure it's another myth though...

It's just the driveshaft taking up slack from the gearbox to the diff when you engage 1st gear at a standstill.
Imagine putting a car up on stands, in neutral, the wheels will still spin if the engines running. Same thing esp in a gear with clutch in.
All of them should do it

Instead of starting a new thread, thought I'd drag this one up from way back in time .

SC, if you've been resurrected, does this mean you're now in your Jesus Christ Pose?
