I have an '88 Westy with 128,000 miles. I had the clutch replaced about 5,000 miles ago, I think with a Sachs unit. What I am noticing is that when the van is cold, the clutch shudders like crazy when releasing. Once the engine has warmed up, the shuddering goes away. Does this sound like the Sachs clutch problem, or could this be a problem with the hydraulics in the clutch mechanism? Thanks
