Thanks for the reply GIBLA53
Perhaps its something to do with the construction or use of a motorhome instead of a commercial van then?
I have a 2009 Citroen Relay 120 L4 H2 van self build conversion (are there no commercially produced motorhomes based on the Relay?) with no windows in the back (does windows make the vibration worse?) and have done 5,000 miles. It doesn't like reversing up steep hills, makes it more noisy, but I haven't noticed any judder. Reverse gear is a bit high so you have to slip the clutch to go slow, and maybe have to rev it a bit to get enough torque to reverse up a steep hill, obviously if you went a long way like that you could burn out the clutch, but if I hadn't read anything about the reverse judder on the internet I wouldn't have thought anymore about it.
