Mat e i have the same problem , been looking into it for a week or so now , and it seems we may well have blistered flywheels ,i've read it on a couple of posts on here and it sounds just like you described it , i think you can warp/blister the face/metal front surface and this can cause the judder .
I may well have got some of this wrong but i'm sure someone will confirm the above .


i have the same clutch and my flywheel was fine so didnt get it changed , (just to save the cash) wish i had've now though ,
The only question is , is it potentially dangerous and could i cause any majour issues with the gearbox and clutch itself , apart from being damn annoying

Try a couple of launches, sometimes this helps as the clutch gets a build up on it, just needs a clean. I had this problem, more from stand still, but worth a try.

i've given the launch thing a right good go , probably done it five or six times now but still not made much difference , best start looking into flywheel then

so so annoying, yeah car seems to drive fine from cold and then when i have a bit of a go and get all warmed up the dreaded judder starts. only when pulling away from stand still, its makes the hole car judder from bumper to bumper.

Another vote for the occasional rally start. Seems to have sorted mine out.

Have a look on ebay £200ish quid. Does it happen at any prosis point, I had a very bad judder and was told it was the over petrol fuel cut out. But since then ive changed my clutch and its great!
