Shudder advice please

Hi all

Wonder if anyone can help.

Have just bought 2013 3.0 litre Quattro cabriolet  (auto) from non Audi dealer and have noticed when reversing once engine is warm it sometimes shudders. Also does it when driving back onto drive at very low revs -  again only seems to be when warm. The RPM seems to be pretty stable. Car only done 9,900 miles. Could this be the dual mass flywheel/clutch with such low miles ?

It also seems to bite quite hard when take foot off break for pulling away - even with foot off accelerator. Revs are showing @800. 

Apart from that car drives great.

Car has full Audi service history and one previous ( plc company) owner.

I have just got rid of my leased A6 Allroad which drove like a dream, so not sure if I am being over concerned as totally different type of car.

Any comments help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I will take to main dealer for a chat but my wallet hurts just thinking about that.

Thanks

Hi Jim....welcome to the Forum

It could be DMF or clutch(s) but I wouldn't jump to that conclusion yet.

Worth taking it to an independent VW Audi specialist who can check the engine/gearbox mounts for excess play also see if anything else is worn or out of alignment.

Does it do it only when turning sharply...e.g. on full lock?
