What's wrong with my Audi's clutch?
I have a 2010 A6 2.0 TDI. My clutch pedal is only coming out half way when I change gear. Does it need to be replaced? Or what else could be the problem?
Cheers,
Pat

Is the clutch in the Nissan Qashqai+2 ok?
I am trading in my 2007 Toyota Avensis Strata for a Nissan Qashqai+2. Just wondering are there problems with the clutches in them, as the warranty from the garage does not cover this.
Thanks

Should I be worried about a sudden jerk in my Polo?
I bought a new Volkswagen Polo GT 1.2 TSI DSG and it has just hit 800km. Recently when acclerating, as soon as the car hit fourth I eased up from the gas and the car responded with a sudden jerk. Is this normal? I tried to do it again, but it didn't happen so I am a bit worried. Is this the normal behaviour of a new car?
Thank you

Is my Citroen's clutch gone?
While driving my Citroen C4 1.6 HDi 110bhp last night at 100km/h in fifth the rev counter went max and I lost all power. The engine was still running fine but I rolled to a stand still unable to find a gear without it hitting max revs. The clutch pedal feels fine so I have no idea what is wrong. I can still start the car just won't go. Any help would be great,
