Lebro Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 Could be the clutch juddering due to oil leaking onto the friction plate. Bob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gabriele Posted May 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 Thanks, is The problem is that, how is possible to' solve it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Salisbury Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 Or the friction plate worn down to the rivets, either case it's a gearbox out, replace the clutch situation, and if it's oil contamination find and fix the leak. Cheers Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geko Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) I would first check the GB mounting and the propshaft UJs & splines. If the plate is gone the clutch would be slipping. Edited May 9, 2016 by Geko Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lebro Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 When starting off, does the vibration stop at the moment you lift your foot off the clutch ? Bob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Motorsport Mickey Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 If it's an oil leak from the rear of the engine or the front of the gearbox which is landing on the clutch inside the gearbox "bellhousing" sometimes when the clutch spins it can be burnt off for a short while. Try putting the car in 3rd gear and giving lots of revs and drive off. It should spin the clutch which will burn off the oil and then the car will drive ok then without juddering. If it does then you still have to replace the clutch because it will be spoiled by the oil on it and you need to fix the oil leak at the rear of the engine or inside the gearbox.
