Clutch chatter/shudder

Hey guys I seem to be getting a bit of clutch chatter on take off lately. Seems to be mainly when its cold. I have no idea what clutch is in it either. Other than that clutch works perfectly.

Anyone else experience this?

Cheers

    I had the same experience as well. I found a clutch adjustment to fix it.
     
    ( I later changed the master, slave and clutch for fun though)

    Like I said in the first post I have no idea. When I bought the car 2.5 years ago the guy that sold it to me just said it was new and 'heavy duty'.
    It seems to go away after about 10 mins of driving though. Also clutch pedal adjusted recently too and fluid is fresh.

    Noooo! Not another clutch!
     
    Is it only on take offs as you said or does it also happen in gear?
    Does it happen on both engagement and disengagement?

    ^lol
    Nope only on take offs in first. Im pretty sure its only on engagement and seems to be fine in reverse. Seems to be more apparent when turning too but that might only be due to more load.

    You feel it through the clutch pedal or through the chassis?
