Rear shuddering

(1/1)

Nev:
Recently bought a series 3 lwb and starting to get her ready for MOT.  I have noticed a shuddering in the rear when i move off in 1st gear but once i get up to speed and change to second she is fine does anybody know what the problem might be

Rich_P:
Check the propshaft UJs and running gear mounts.  Depending on how long you slip the clutch in 1st, it may be the clutch also juddering.

Found out that it was a missing bush on one of the rear leaf springs.  Been replaced now and everythnihg is fine.  Thank you both for your advice. :lol:
