Hi guys
When I drive the disco td5 auto cold and get to a junction,, the car sort of judders/hunts like the clutch isn't fully engaged.
When it's warm it fine with no issues
The cars in for a service on Wednesday at my mates garage and was wondering is it worth changing the gearbox oil, (I belive reading up its easy to do) or is it more a clutch issue
Cheers
 
I’d say change the oil and filter in that case. Not an expensive experiment, did mine myself and as you say it’s an easy job.

Yeah think I will do that and see what happens
Will have to get down to the local specialist and get the parts and then get it booked in again
 
It’s an easy job if you are so inclined, there is a set torque to do everything up to but I have a little torque wrench that I bought for my bike which does the job. Probably cheaper to buy one than it would cost in labour, refilling is a bit of a faff though!
