Yes, I'm a bit worried... Have had mine for 2 days... No clutch judder yet, but since it's a recurring problem, I was wondering if it's been corrected on the MY01, or if anybody has had it yet...

Cheers, and wish me luck... I'll need it if I want to keep my clean record with the authority (10 years and not one speeding ticket ).

Cheers

Congratulations on your new car m8 and happy motoring. Don't know about the judder though.

Question for Pete,

How many miles would you recommend running a car in before you give it a good track day?

Mines done about 6.5k and no signs of the dreaded judder. But then again, my MY99 lasted for some 20k before it set in. I seem to remember reading somewhere, that they have done some work on the clutch.

Have fun...

I GOT JUDDER!!!

12,500km on MY01 and it only happens when its cold and you dont give it enough revs.
Service manager says they r all like that but much better than prior models with those clutches lasting for not very long. The clutch on the MY01 has been beefed up considerably, however...............

Its hardly a problem though....just give it a bit more stick...
