After a bit of spirited driving today I seem to have developed some clutch judder, especially noticable when setting off in 1st.
What have I done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe you just overheated it and it'll be ok tomorrow. Here's hoping as it looks like a sod of a job.

I'll go out & try it later, I had also been stuck in traffic for a while so we'll see how it is today.

Thanks for the replys :-)

I don't think that the judder is the rubber centre breaking up, as mine did it for 60,000 miles before the rubber centre failed. When it did break there was a lot of take up in the transmission, causing progressively severe lurching on gear changes and ending with an £800 bill for a new clutch.

I was worried that I was needing a new clutch & had a look on the hartech site £520+VAT

My car has done 98000 miles so I recon that sooner or later I'll need a clutch, any ideas on life expectancy for this item?
