Hi,
I have a 170 BHP S-Line A3 Sportback which I have had some clutch problems with. Has anyone else experienced problems with the clutch on these?
The cars a 57 plate with 6000 miles.
My issues are
1. The clutch can be very fierce, and no matter how slow you let it up or at what revs you have it can be jerky.
2. The clutch smells badly and smokes heavily when doing slow speed reverse up a steep hill. This happens, even if you reverse only about 3 car lengths.
Its currently at my dealer now being investigated, but wished to know if this is a common issue, or just a one off.
Thanks
