Subject: Sot: clutch shudder fixes...e36 (long)

So my E36 is experiencing a lot of clutch shudder.

I made the terrible mistake of replacing the clutch kit but not having the flywheel surfaced.
it shudders A LOT and make the car very unpleasant to drive at low speed/commute.

I did drive probably 1000km with it for now, with some hope that it will reduce. It didnt.

SO my question is, since i did ride 1000km, if i take it all apart and have it surfaced, will it cure it still ?

I also have a strange clutch pedal vibration, that i could normaly relate to a bad bearing or a bent finger on the pp, but since everything is new (clutch kit, new pp, new disk, new release bearing), i am realy wondering whats wong Mr wrong.

One other thought is the new design release bearing that is made of grey carbon plastic rather than steel. It is quite loose on the input shaft tube. There is a lot of play even compared to the 350 000km old one. I searched everywhere and it seems to be normal, its the "new design" where they have put a lot of clearance so it wont seize as te tech guy from bav auto told me...i am wondering if that play is responsible of the pedal shake. It occurs when i press slightly on the pedal, it goes away once i am near the release point or any deeper on the pedal. Very annoying

thanks for any inputs/experiences on this.
