hi,
I have thrown a c20Xe into my corsa, but when i have engaged a gear and come off the clutch (on to the throttle) i get a clunk. If feels clutch/driveshaft related, but im pretty sure the drive shafts are in correctly. There is a little play in them when it is free-standing, but i was told all driveshafts are like that. They are M-Tech ones.
I have put a new clutch in but it doesnt have some sort of bush or bearing as we didnt have one but again i was told this shouldnt be a problem.
The car has bad clutch judder.
Any suggestions? if not the car will be set alight and vids will be on YouTube - im past pissed off with this now and its causing me a great deal of annoyance and stress!

I've checked that, there was a bolt that was snapped but I have replaced it.
