Does the car select the gears easily when the engine is off? If so, the clutch is dragging slightly ie; not fully releasing. From my experience, once it's shuddering, no amount of 'bedding in' will ever make it good.
It is easy to change gear when the car is off. Occasionally, it is difficult to change into any gear with the engine on and when it is stationary.
The shuddering only happens when I feather the clutch into first or reverse. Doesn't happen when driving normally or change gear once I get going.
