A few day ago i noticed that when putting my ms6 into first and letting off clutch it would start driving without me giving it gas. It also does this in reverse. I was wondering if the gears weren't engaging properly.
 
What?

So you car moves when you put it in gear and let off the clutch?

As far as your description tells, your car is opperating normally.
It is trying to maintain idle rpm while in gear.
 
Not only moves it drives and at least gets up to 5mph without me putting on the gas, I haven't noticed it before.
 
What rpm does your car idle?
I can get into second and the car chuggs hard in third but maintains foreward motion. My idle is set at 950rpm.
 
750- 790 Ive just noticed. I don't know if its because i am be coming a better driver. How do you set the idle i have a cobb ap.
 
If a car has enough torque and the RPMs stay high enough then it can start itself in motion without giving it gas. I regularly let the clutch out a bit to move out of the garage when the RPMs are still high while the car is warming up in the morning, and I don't normally have to give it gas, or much gas, to get it going. It shouldn't exactly be happy to do it, and you should get the RPMs up high enough so that you don't lug the engine when it starts moving, but I wouldn't worry about what you're seeing.
