Hi all,
I'm having an issue with the clutch on my A3 ever since I bought it - I though it will iron out once I put a few miles on the clock, but it persists.
It's a bit difficult to explain - so bear with me - When I'm releasing the clutch there is a sudden drop in RPM in one point and unless I hold the clutch in that place for a second or two and build the RPM back up, the engine will die. In other words it's been so far impossible to have a quick smooth start. It's mostly felt when starting the car from the 1st gear, and also makes starting from the 2nd gear nearly impossible. I've never experienced anything like this on any car I've driven - it makes the car really sluggish & annoying, or is there something that I'm missing ?
Thanks
