Hi all. I was hoping someone could shed some light. I have recently had the clutch kit and DMF replaced on my 1.5 dci qashqai J11 due to a judder when setting off in 1st on a hill. Since the new clutch and DMF it has got worse and even judders when pulling out of a junction and changing into 2nd gear. I have been told that the juddering is normal on 1.5 dci's? I was going to take it back to the garage to see if the clutch has been fitted right but if this is normal then I am stuck. Really hoping it isn't normal as the judder would become very annoying. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks guys.

I had a 2017 1.5 dci for three years from new and covered about 30,000 miles.
I never experienced any juddering in any gear.
In your position, I would go back to the garage
