Please Help - Clutch Operation Issue

Hi all,

I recently purchased an Audi A4 B8 2008 1.8 tfsi with 72k, I instantly had issues with the clutch, the clutch pedal operation would be notchy/creaky and would engage and release in stages rather then a smooth motion.

The garage I bought the car from recommended a new clutch and flywheel under there warranty scheme for used cars they offered, I agreed and they completed the work.

Since I've had the car back the clutch is very stiff to operate and after a few days started to creak and wasn't smooth to operate again, I returned the car and they said there might be some air in the system so would bleed it, I took the car again today and the clutch was fine for approx 3 hours, now it's gone back to the same usual nonsense.

Please can someone help, it's driving me insane now and I honestly think the garage I purchased the car from don't have a clue what the issue is.

Thank you,

Matt

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response.

Yes the pedal goes down in stages, it's so notchy, it's not normal...

I saw the new parts the flywheel and the clutch but never saw the old parts.

I've just returned about 15 minutes ago from the garage and there attitude is 'come back when the car breaks down and your covered under the 12 months warranty for the clutch' they won't even acknowledge the pedal problem even though they have admitted they can feel the problem.

I think I may have to pursue this through the finance company as it's HP because the garage seem to have wiped there hands clean of the car at this stage.
