Default Clutch Chatter Vibrations?

I get a real bad shaking and vibration feeling when I take off from a start in my car. The car shakes and you could hear this chattering (im almost sure its from the clutch) and then after you get to a certain speed about 75MPH it stops. Any ideas what could this be?

Is it only during engagement when your slipping your clutch a little to get moving? What happens when you're moving and you press the clutch pedal in, does it stop? need some more info..

When Im on the throttle the car moves when I put it in neutral the car gets no vibration and no shaking. I thought it was my mounts but I guess not.

Ok so are you saying that when you're on the gas and accelerating, you get a bunch of vibration? but when you put the car in neutral and coast it doesn't? what about when you gear down, what happens then?

Sorry about getting back to you...being new, I can only post 5 times in one day and I reached my limit when I was talking to you yesterday.

Clutch chatter happens when you are taking off from a dead stop and are slipping the clutch to get you going. This mainly happens if your flywheel is glazed from slipping the clutch a lot or if you change the clutch without resurfacing the flywheel. When you're doing this, if you get a lot of vibration back through the clutch pedal and some "chattering" noise that's clutch chatter. It sounds to me like it's more drive line related in your case...maybe a bad cv joint/axle or engine/tranny mount....hard to tell without more information.
