March 24, 200719 yr 2000 OBW 5-speed, third owner, about to roll over 70,000mi. I did the search and I realize there are lots of topics that cover this, but they all seem inconclusive as far as cause, fix, and what Subaru has been able to do about it. Plus I'd just like help tailored around my own questions if no one minds... So, before I bought the car (68,666mi) I never noticed the clutch judder issue because when I test drove it of course it was warm. Once in my posession I did notice the judder but chalked it up as part of the learning curve associated with getting familiar with a new car and my out-of-practice stick driving skills. Then I noticed it only does it when the car is cold. Now, I'm pretty well used to the car and realize it's not "just me". Not to mention as I did research I've discovered this is a real issue not just an isolated incident. Any ideas what options I may have? Not too familiar with warranties since this is the newest car I've ever owned. I've heard there's a Service Bulletin regarding the clutch issue but have not been able to locate it. I've also read about people having their clutches replaced only to have the problem reoccur later on. What's the deal? Is Subaru doing anything about this? There's no way my cars under warranty still is it? If so would it even apply to non-original owners?
