I had a second hand gearbox and a new clutch put in about a month ago and since then when I pull away it judders. Its less when its starting from cold and gets worse as everything warms up. Any ideas welcome.

Before going any further.
What car is it?
What brand of clutch did you fit and was it the full kit?

Its a Pug 305 diesel van and it was the full kit. It was a couple of months ago and I can't remember what brand it was. Got it from a part supplier.

How was the crank bearing seal?
Clutches and oil a judder do make...

Check the engine / gearbox mounts and clutch cable as well.

I had a new crank seal at the same time.The engine mounting was renewed about a year ago and a new german clutch cable ( not one of the curse word ones on offer here ) fitted about 2 years ago. The gearbox mounting seemed alright at the time, not obviously kernakkered. Would the gearbox mount alone be the prob?

You need the receipt to send that clutch back.
Did you take note of the condition of the flywheel?

The gearbox mount could potentially cause this but IME there tends to be more slack in the drivetrain if this is the case.
IMO it will be down to a couple of things:
-Flywheel needs skimming badly ; what state was the face in?
-Springs in the clutch centre plate are not what they could be.

I'm tending to think its the clutch springs coz when its in neutral and you release the clutch it does make a slight rattle. If you do it slowly its less, quickly and its worse. The fly wheel was in good shape so springs it is. Even if I can find the receipt what am I gonna do ? take the kin thing out? Sh*t! way to busy with work. Cheers guys for the info.

If it's not a seized driveshaft bearing in the rear mount or clutch, it should be the flywheel.

my bets on the seal, why was the clutch changed in the first place and the seal
|

If no judder before the clutch change but it started soon after, I'd think something has been refitted loose/wrong ( or disturbed or damaged) - not an engine mounting going soft over time. Are there any stabiliser bars on that engine? Check all engine & gearbox mountings are ok (not soft or covered in oil) - including the one from the head to the inner wing. Check all the mounting bolts are tight in case some have worked loose. If you lift the bonnet and try to shake the engine by hand - any obvious loose mounts? Oil on the clutch would be my other guess   |
