1st Gear Shudder	Sign In

Car 2007 Suzuki Esteem VXi, 1300cc, 5 speed manual, 27000 kilos.

My car was smooth like silk a month back the only problem I had was I had to give a bit more gas on inclined plane. So the mechanic said to change the clutch plate, release bearing, tranny oil and I did that's when the Sh!t started. After a week the car started to shudder violently from 1st gear, so the mechanic changed the pressure plate, ignition coil and the spark plug cable. He opened the gearbox 3 times in one month, the shudder never went away. Today when i was coming home from office, the shudder started getting more violent. This happens more when I drive the car on first gear. Reminder our countries traffic is the worst, I had to drive 1 hours straight on 1st gear most days and that's when it gets violent. After driving on 1st for a while the car just doesn't want to get out of first the more I rev the more it shudders, feels like the engine gonna fall off.

Please somebody help, I'm just losing money. They just F**ked my good car

We don't have that vehicle here in the states, so advice may be kind of limited.

Does it shudder accelerating in reverse?

Was the flywheel resurfaced when the clutch components were replaced. Was the clutch disc contaminated with anything such as engine oil?

Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

Nope, no shudder on reverse.

The flywheel was resurfaced. If there is oil how long will it take to get burnt out. Its getting worse each day. If it was oil shouldn't it get better the more I drive?

No, it would get worse. Oil damage is permanent.
