Is this normal for the newer Hondas? My Old CRX didn't do this, its like trying to bark a tire in 2nd even though I honestly am not trying to, just to get up to flow of traffic quickly. I have driven a manual all my life so I am not a newbie, took it to the dealer**** and they said it was normal but I don't believe them. If you understand what I am saying if not I will try and clarify it.

I speak "old fart". lol
Just control the clutch more to reduce jerkiness. Sometimes I will intentionally shift hard to get the chirps when I'm "in the mood."
