Hey Guys,

Sorry if this has been addressed before, still new to the forums.

I've had my Disco now for about a month and I think there is a slight clutch shudder. The car only has 160,000km but I think it did a lot of towing previously.

Can I make any adjustments to fix the issue or do I just need to wait until it's bad enough to replace? I hear it's about a $1,500 fix :(

Cheers.

Check the gearbox and engine mounts for softness and cracking and replace them if necessary.

If that doesn't fix it, it will be an oil-glazed driven-plate in the clutch most probably, which will need replacing,
