This experience is called clutch "judder," or the violent drivetrain shaking when trying to feather the clutch.

Mine was bad out of the box. One day (16k miles) the CSC failed, and got replaced. The judder nearly went away.

The shudder returned after about 1k miles. It happens only after the drivetrain is warmed up. I suspected something like the CSC as the dealer did not replace that when they replaced the clutch. It's now more of an annoyance than anything. Perhaps I'll get lucky at some point and my csc will fail as well...
