I remember when mine started to shudder a few thousand miles after I had
a Sachs replacement installed. That was 50,000 miles ago.
It still shudders. It is worst first thing in the morning, and when
backing up (particularly when backing up a hill.) My thought was that
the transmission seal is leaking oil and flinging it on the clutch.
