Mines back at the garage (a different one this time who hopefully know a little more what their doing!), all mounts going to be checked, clutch cable. As i mentioned before i've had the clutch done but this made it worse. Seem to think it's going to be a warped fly wheel which will need re skimming as i cannot find one to fit anywhere! Borough i will post on here as soon as i hear the solution. Mine was from Scotland though not Reading.

think i would be looking at gearbox mounts had my beetle do this everything looked ok but when i took engine out the gearbox mounts had separated but with engine in they looked complete the weight of the engine etc pushes down to make it look connected
dont fix it if its not broke cos after you finish it will be!

Hi

I know it's been a while since I added to this thread but I thought I should tell you what happened to the juddering clutch problem, it might help someone in the future.
It was the pressure plate springs that were damaged (Only slightly distorted). After having the clutch and pressure plate changed it's all lovely and smooth again. Thanks to Jacks Garage (London) for sorting it out.
It just added to the cost of the van that I had only just bought from a bloke in Reading.
Did you get yours sorted?

Well that just proves that saving money by just fitting the friction plate is false economy... Get the kit and fit the lot :D
