1994 306DT Slight Judder - hm
Hi there,

I have had my 306DT for over 6yrs now. Yesterday (and today) I have noticed a very slight judder when I pull off in First gear. I'm not to sure if it gets better when she has warmed up or if it is just preception.

Has anyone every had this issue? It is the 1st time it has every happen to me since I've owned the car.

The clutch is not slipping when driving and she still pulls away fine, just a slight judder.

Damp Clutch?

Cheers

H

"Damp Clutch?"

Very likely. In the cold weather we've been having recently, some condensation will settle on the plate overnight. Some cars are more susceptible to this than others.
