Default Engine shuddering when engaging clutch

In the last couple weeks, when I come to a stop and push the clutch and select first gear ,the rpms drop and my engine shudders like its gonna stall, but than the rpms bump back up and its fine.

Any ideas?

Thx.

Does the engagement feel weird or does the engine shutter and jolt.

Engagement feels fine,no real jolt either.

Just the slight vibration as if its starting to stall.

same problem here.

my buddy says his does the same thing so I thought it was normal.

It does it when you don't put enough gas when engaging the clutch in first, right?
