Sounds like your flywheel is needing replaced mate. Mine doesn't do it. Or the other 4 or 5 I've driven.

Is this when you've raised the clutch too high and it's about to stall? If so, dip the clutch,

Otherwise there's something a miss.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Correct, dual mass flywheel was invented for noise and to be smoother
Vibration means something's not right

Mine makes a bit of a judder if I dont give it enough revs when setting off. I read somewhere that DMF's like revs to work properly ( quietly) :smiley:
