Clutch Judder

[davewm]

Recently spent some time in London. On Friday I drove into the city and did quite a few miles in heavy traffic (stop/start).
After a while I started to get clutch judder. This got worse throughout the day. The following day I drove back home along A12 therefore not much clutch use. The car seems ok now although there is a "tiny" bit of judder. As anyone else experienced this. Meg is 57 plate with only 11000 miles on clock. Thanks

Clutch judder comes as standard on Meganes.

Thanks for that!
I've spoken to Bristo's Renault Ipswich and the service chap said that they had a meg in last week with the same problem!
He also said that Renault are aware of a problem????
In your experience does this mean they will do anything about it?

lol sorry I couldn't be of more help. I honestly don't know what they will say.

I find my clutch juddering every now and again in different situations. I know a number of other people have found the same.

It would be interesting to hear what Renault have to say about it, but I think it is a trait of the car.

I'm not going to add much in the way of information by posting this, but mine doesn't judder at all. It's its only major mechanical bonus point... The fault/feature you describe seems to be one of the great 'unresolved'.

i was told by a mechanic a friend of mine its something to do with the material they use on the clutch(inviromentally friendly stuff) wears a lot quicker and doesn't like getting to hot hence the juddering in first gear, happens on my civic especially if i give it some stick i leave it for a bit to cool down and its fine.

Mine Judders when VERY cold...when normal conditions perfectly fine...Judders when VERY WARM!!

For me I blame it on the materials of the clutch!
