Odd little jolt..
« on: March 18, 2012, 01:45:04 pm »
So I've noticed an unusual little 'jolt' when pulling away in 1st gear and it also happened when I changed gear from 2nd to 3rd..
I'm sure it's not down to my driving as I've had the car 6 months and it's never done it before..I'm wondering if it's the clutch?? Has anyone any ideas? I drive a MK6 GTI, which I bought from an approved VW dealer.

Cheers

Can't help you with your problem but if I was you I would take it back to the vw place you bought it from, did it come with a 12 month warranty??

Quick update, took the car into VW. They reckon it's the driveshaft. Obviously all covered under warranty so no dramas!
