Slight hesitation when changing gear

[alan]

Ok, a bit of a strange one to describe!

After the car has been warmed up and driven for a few miles when I'm changing gear it feels like the car hesitates/jolts ever so slightly on up shifts and down shifts, just after the clutch has been released. It feels a bit like the kangarooing when cold. Everything else feels ok through the rev range range right up to the red line.

I thought it might of been the lower engine mount as there was a slight bit of play in it, so I had that replaced.

My mate has an OBD scanner and it returned no faults when scanned.

I have recently changed the engine oil and filter and gearbox oil. Also cleaned out the ITG air filter as well. It's probably due a set of plugs which I'll try and pick up through the week.

Any ideas or suggestions anybody?!

It might be the clutch cylinder or the upper engine mount.

IMHO.

Cheers! There does seem to be a wee bit of play on the top stabiliser bar. Is that the one you're refering to? Or the big mount that sits down on the chasis to the left of the engine?

I've got braided lines and a brake fluid to do at some point so might as well bleed the clutch slave cylinder while I'm at it.
