A vibration in high gears that goes away when the clutch pedal is depressed typically suggests an issue within the drivetrain before the transmission such as a failing flywheel, clutch disk issue, or input shaft bearing. The symptom suggests something under load is vibrating, which stops once the engine is disconnected from the transmission.
