Clutch sticking when cold outside?
For the past few days it's been below zero here at night. When I go outside in the morning to start my car, the clutch sticks to the floor for a second. It's does this until the car is warmed up. It also makes a funny crunchy whiney type sound right when it disengages between shifts until it's warmed up. Is this normal for a new 04 with only 2000 miles on it?

i got the crunchy noises after i released the clutch from initial startup. The clutch felt very solid and hard to engage. I think it could be the tranny fluid is frozen. This problem does not happen when the car is garged and not subject to severe cold weather.
