I had that.
Warm the car up.
Find a quiet stretch of road.
Give it 5.5 to 6.0 K Rpm
Drop the clutch
Open the window to get rid of the smell.
End of judders

Hasn't it always?
It's sad to see TK has gone, there used to be some good banter with her and the others!
I was laughing to myself (sad I know!) about what some of the replies would have been on there if you had mentioned "clutch Judder"......
Go on...you know you want to. See what they suggest

Fantastic!
I see you have posted another! Probably the rubber seal around the front and rear doors. Check all the windows are fully up by sending them down then back up until they stop. Sounds daft i know but my passenger window wasnt fully up and leaked water!
Also check in the boot under the carpet/cardboard section covering the spare wheel. Back lights are notorious for leaking which will cause condensation
Hope that helps.

End of judders.... but not for long
It will be back and this is just a temporary fix that will take about 10k off the life of your clutch
And no they
don't all do that
Some do and some don't... my first clutch never did it, then onto number 2 and yup
judders like a juddery thing especially when cold

It's what software engineers like to call a 'feature', My MY00 does it in the cold. Very irritating
