I don't want to jinx it, but a few days down the road the chatter/judder on hill starts in first has improved. I am also setting the rpms slightly higher now. I've been given advice to just drive as normal for a couple of weeks and see how it is then.

Did yours chatter incessantly and vibrate like a blender? If so, maybe you just have bad luck. Again, lets not pretend that you own an M3, m'kay? You drive a G37 automatic, so stick to what you know.

^^^How about you stop trolling for my replies to make stupid and pointless arguments with me over? I own an auto G37 because I loved the car but not the manual transmission. Get over it.

I switched from an 04 G35 5at to an 08 G37s 6mt cause i wanted a manual and everyone on the g35 board bagged on anyone with an at. So i love changing gears on my own but this is the first manual ive had in 15 years so i may suck at changing gears, but somedays i wish i had the a.t. again bc my shifts are jerky at best. its not such a big deal when im driving alone, but when i have my wife/kids in car i feel like a douche. is it just me? will grounding cables or different clutch/flywheel help? just thinking aloud

I have 42k miles on my 08 G37S and not one problem with the clutch. I do remember when I bought the car the salesman told me if you have any issues with your clutch bring it in and we'll take care of it which I thought was odd for him to say.

haha this makes me laugh... Phil I feel your pain. I have a 6mt 08 g37 coupe and it had a clutch done at 12k miles. The dealer covered it under warranty since i bought it cpo with 11700miles. I am already having trouble again and have 'hotspots' on my flywheel less than 10k miles later. And I drive it like im afraid to break it, but i dont ride the clutch.
Called the dealer and was told these clutches are expected to last 25k miles and never past 40k... we must be calling the same dealer in white plains ny. That made me laugh.
I have a 17 year old bmw with 168k miles on the stock clutch.
Lost all faith in Infiniti. This will certainly be my last.
