Slight judder when reversing slowly

[Stephen Edwin]

I get a bit of clutch judder when the engine is cold in the morning and under load when setting off in 1st gear. The judder disappears after the engine has run for 10 minutes or so. I've put it down to a slight seep from the oil seal at the back of the crank somehow misting onto the clutch. When I next have the clutch changed I will see if this theory is right or not. I think the seal is original ie 26 years old so must be favourite.

Cheers

Could it be caused by a tired engine or transmission mounting?
