Hi from the uk from the symptoms you describe ? there is a judder as you take up drive in 1st gear ? may i suggest that this fault is not uncommon on this model and the fault is the engine mounting that is the one at the front of engine directly behind the radiator as you stand at front of car this mounting has a metallastic rubber which has probably parted from the metal fixing plate this results in the engine tilts back and lifts as you take up drive in 1st gear from standstill ? but once moving all other gearchanges seem ok ?? you can check mounting by slightly raising the engine at rear with a jack you will see mounting part from rubber this mounting is easy diy and the mount costs £15 approx here in uk and takes 1/2 hour to replace have done many of these in past if you req instruction on best/easiest way to do job? by all means get in touch ? hope this helps/inspires you ? best wishes from n/west uk
