When you changed the clutch, did you notice whether this model has the fluid type flywheel?...if it has...I'd lay money on that being your problem.

hi not sure as when i got the 3 part clutch from shop it just looked normal , not sure if it has fluid or anything? how cud i tell and if it doesnt, what else cud it be?

I suspect that if you purchased a 3 part clutch kit...(normal type) you def. don't have a fluid flywheel...... (been a long time since my hands allowed me to actually do mechanics so I'm a little out of touch) but I still mix with mechanics and the general consensus is that most 'judder' on modern cars usually stems from worn fluid flywheel assemblies...just thought it worth a mention...sorry if it caused any confusion.

The only other things I can think of that may be worth a check are, firstly your engine mountings (check to see if the rubber mount on one side has become detached), and secondly your cv joints...although generally, but not always, they tend to be noisier with steering on full lock.
