Subaru Impreza first gear juddering???

Car: Subaru Impreza
Variant: sti wrx
Model Year: 2001
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
In first gear either from start or whilst driving the car violently judders, jolting the car body back and forth as if there is a lack of fuel.
In all other gears there is no problem.
I've had the car in a garage for several weeks not and they've concluded that they can not find the problem so I don't know what to do...
PLEASE HELP!

Hi are you having trouble getting the car into 1st gear and does it start making a very loud noise. If so when it clears itself does it feel that like you have gone over a bump?

Try pumping the pedel first thing in the morning once you have started the car ,if the resulting pull away is judder free ,it's a warpped flywheel -This is a problem on all new age impreza's .the only sure fix is replace the flywheel i'm afraid..
