Hi all
I know their has been a few clutch problems highlighted on here just recently, and I have another to add! I have a noise when pulling off from standstill, whether in 1st or reverse. I can only describe it as a creak just about the bite point only. No vibration throught the pedal at all.
The dealer has now heard the noise, and have rebooked the car in for further investigations. They have made it quite clear that if it is clutch related and the gearbox needs removing, I may be liable for all costs! I understand that I would be responsible for friction plate etc, but surely not anything else such as release bearing etc. They say that VW will only cover clutch components for 3 months, and suggets that I live with it until it gets worse.
The car an Edition 30, only 15 months old with 12,000 miles, so I am not too happy! Any thoughts? Whats the story with premature clutch wear and DMF problems.
Thanks!
