After 120,000 miles, I finally had to replace the clutch on my 1987 Vanagon (2wd). The job was done by a VW shop. When I got my van back, it shakes violent everytime I try to put it in 1st from a standing stop. I took it back to the shop and they claim that it is because the engine mounts needed to be replaced. ( me think they broke the mount in the clutch job!) But anyway, I let them replace the engine mounts. Now, it shakes a lot less, but it still shakes when I put it in 1st gear from a stand still. The only way I can stop the shaking is to really rev up the engine when I release the clutch and I have to release very very slowly. Any one have any advice for me to consider before I take it back to the shop again? Thanks. Yau-Man Chan 87 Vanagon Martinez, CA
