Hi All, trying to diagnose a problem with my lads car , formally my car
Its a 2011 2.0 Tdi Avant quattro with a 6 speed manual gearbox and it seems to have lost all drive, at first he thought the clutch
had failed , but looking at it today the pedal feels fine and as you lift it you can kind of determine a biting point at which point
a grinding noise can be heard, if you choose a different higher gear then the pitch of the grinding becomes higher so this leads me to think
the clutch is working, the Gearbox is working, but when it comes to output something pretty major has failed, are there any checks i can make ?
has anyone had any similar problems ? I thought this setup was pretty bulletproof and am surprised at such a major transmission failure on a
lowly Tdi the car has done around 155K so a lot but shouldn't really be an issue and had no whining or noises , it had a slight judder when
setting off in 1st but it's done that for years even back when I had it and I'm led to believe that's a common issue on these cars
any help would be appreciated on what looks like is going to get very expensive
Regards Mark
