I consider myself a skilled manual transmission driver, easy on clutches. On my 240D, no matter how hard I try, I cannot engage the clutch from a standstill (when the engine/cluch is cold) without stuttering. Once it warms up, the stutter/chatter stops.

What do you think is causing this?
Is it possible to inspect the clutch w/o pulling the engine/tranny?
