Dsg clutch replacement

[KevinS38L]

Whilst driving the family wagon A3 1.6.tdi (DSG) 2014 s line saloon, this week i felt she had been in need of some attention.
There is a very noticeable strong judder though the steering wheel when pulling away. A horrible grinding noice when braking and coming to a stop like the pads are down to metal.
The pads and disks were all replaced on last mot (oct 2019). We stripped them off today and cleaned everything up regressing pads and checking for play at the same time.
No joy!
we now believe that it is the clutch!
I have the car booked in with AMD ESSEX
Please help with advice on what i expect will be the final damage cost wise. 64,000 miles on the clock, or can anyone recommend a good garage closer to home. Rickmansworth herts. Thanks guys

All I do know is the reputation of AMD via an old neighbour when we lived in Essex He was an engineer who did majoority of stuff himself, running a modified diesel Golf and a Porsche 911. He was very happy with the service they gave and said prices were fair.

Well a closer garage would be VAG Tune in Aylesbury. Run by Nick, ex Audi mechanic (don't hold that against him!). Pretty good prices too. Give him a bell to discuss.
