Re: keyless entry and start not working on one key despite changing battery

I had a similar problem with one of my keys. It was unreliable in proximity use but usually the lock/unlock buttons worked because pressing them improved the battery connection.

Are you certain that it is indeed clutch judder or is it the engine faultering when the clutch is putting the load on the engine? Is the engine running as smoothly as you'd expect it of has it become a bit rough and lazy, especially around 1500 rpm? As a start have you tried fuelling with something ...
