Title: Juddering when moving off
Post by Tangerine on 24. Mar 2011 at 14:26

My Omega Facelift Auto Diesel (BMW engine) has started to judder quite violently when starting off. It is fine in Reverse or if I select the Winter setting to go forward (when I presume it does not use 1st gear)
It starts to judder after about 5 yards when accelerating but it is fine if I just let it move forward on tick-over, until I give it a few revs.
Any ideas appreciated please.

Sounds like the centre bush on the propshaft.
Get under the car and see if theres any up/down movement on the prop :y
