That could be oil on the plates from either end, gearbox oil stinks...but then clutch plates do but its more fishy.

I wondered about oil..... but never noticed any smells.

I suppose I should check the level of oil in the gearbox - is that easy to do?

After a 100+ mile run next morning the clutch judders...It's oil all right but not enough to be worried about.
The clutch was changed 3 years ago.

I just live with it, it disapears after a bit

Fantastic news. Too awkward to even worry about!

I'll investigate it when it's broken down properly.

Result! Liz says she'll have a look at the next techy, as long as there is red wine on tap and someone to look after the dogs!

MIne judders badly when left for a while but like yours dan it clears itself after a few minutes.

I figured it was probably something like oil contamination.
