When changing gear (always down - not up) I get a kind of "shuddering" where the car feels a little "rough"
I cant really describe it more than that !
Otherwise all is fine - engine sounds & feels spot on all other times....

Any comments ?

You do not say which model/mileage/year, but if the clutch was on its way out I would have thought the most noticable symptom would have been slip and difficulty selecting reverse/first gear.

Mine does exactly the same but not always, Generally when it had some pig, Last time it had a clutch the flywheel was skimmed due to poor condition so i think its in a simular state now & thats whats causing the judder.
