Most of the time, clutch chatter comes from either oil leaking out of the rear main seal and getting on the flywheel or pressure plate surface which causes it not to grab consistantly, or from the flywheel or pressure plate getting warped. Either way, if you want to fix it, replace the clutch, have the flywheel turned, and replace the rear main seal. All you should need to replace the seal is a really flat screwdriver or chizzle and a hammer. I may be smoking a fat sack and not remembering exactly how the seal comes out but I think there's a lip that you can wedge the screwdriver under and pry it out. Anyway, good luck.
