Hello people im dieing for ideas here i just finished up my clutch install and now my car violently shakes ONLY from a DEAD STOP. My dad thinks the clutch disc is slipping like it was a litle too greasy when i put it in or when i bled the system (pushed brake fluid up the bleeder to get all air out) that it may have got on the clutch disc.. :bang: . I need some ideas besides taking the tranny back out..someone please help

Some clutches chatter when they are new. It should decrease as you break it in and hopdfully will be gone within a few hundred miles.

What clutch is it?

Some Spec clutches have been known to have chatter. 300 highway miles doesn't mean much to a new clutch. You need about 400 city miles to break it in.
