Clutch shuddering

My clutch feels like it's shuddering when I let it out, and only in 1st.

It doesn't do it all the time, and I'm fairly sure it's something new. Is this just something that happens after a little wear? I'm at 22,000.

Oh and does anyone know if you can switch headlight assemblies from a 2002 Maxima to a 2000? My girlfriend just bought a 2000 and she thinks the 02's headlights are more aggressive.

Thanks.

ALOT of 6mt owners have it. I went to get it checked out but they didn't find anything wrong or give me any good information about the shutter.

Re: Clutch shuddering

If you are describing chatter then it's an issue with the clutch/flywheel. The problem tends to be most common with poor clutch break-in, but contamination or flywheel or pressure plate warpage issues can cause chatter to occur. The solution would be to change the clutch and resurface the flywheel.

Re: Clutch shuddering

Well it's not too bad. It's hard to describe, but it shudders a bit when I let the clutch out in first gear. I can feel it when my foot is on the clutch. It doesn't happen whenever it's fully in gear. Its only when I let the clutch out at lower RPM's.

Thanks for the replies.

Re: Clutch shuddering

My car has the same chattering/shuddering too when letting the clutch out in 1st gear. It's done it since brand new - the day I picked up the car. I've got 11k now, and it hasn't changed. It's slight, so I'm not going to pursue getting it fixed.
