How long ago did the judder start? Did you buy the car from a dealer or private

Have you tried a vag specialist?

So in gears 1&2 there's no problems?
3rd gear at 1900 it's shaking like mad?
4th-6th what happens?

Driving on the motorway at 70mph, knock it out of gear and coast in neutral and it's rattle free right?

Might be looking at a gearbox replacement

No rattling what so ever and every gear after 3rd shakes like mad but seems to fade out at 2500rpm goes away
