Or not. If you can live with / drive around the juddering, you could have tons of life left in the clutch. The dual mass springs seem to wear out a long time before the clutch disc itself does most of the time.

Yeah, it is more annoying than anything else. It's still perfectly functional, and if that is the problem, I'm less concerned that it's an omen of imminent failure.
