Clutch judder is a pretty common fault with the e30, my 320i did it when I first bought it as that had been sat on a drive for 6 months prior to me buying it.

In fact when the 2.7 gets really hot the new clutch can start to judder slightly when slipping it in traffic :(

I'd just keep driving it for a while to see if it calms down !

Cheers,

Thanks Iain , yes my previous 320 used to do it when hot but this is from cold so it may be a mounting on it's way out which i'd prefer it to be rather than the plate , just wondered if there a any obvious signs to look for on the mountings Cheers Keith
