Ya! I get in this morning (a wee bit coolish out) and take it outta gear & start it. I get a slight movement. Starter is pulled down a bit like the battery is low. Still, the car outta gear but I push in the clutch for the 2nd try of starting it. It starts and I let out the clutch (still outta gear) & the engine drags down with a slight movement forward. What is happening here? This doesnt make sense to me. If it's outta gear there shouldn't be any way for forward propulsion.

I've even seen the effect on a warm summer's day... The car was idling on a lift, both rear wheels in the air. One of them was turning slowly. If you grabbed it, it stopped easily, but the other one slowly started to turn. If you grabbed both, they would stop. When you let go, the one would eventually start to turn again. It was quite weird, but not abnormal.
