MonkeyVR6 0 Posted May 8, 2008 Hi chaps, Bit of an odd thing I've recently noticed with my Corrado VR6. When I'm stationary and I pull away from a junction/traffic lights etc I notice that the revs dip a bit when I start to take my foot of the clutch pedal to engage it. Also a bit of a sqeek :? The revs when idle are just above 500rpm (which I'm told is normal for a VR6). Please tell me I don't need a new clutch! Cheers, D. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dukest 0 Posted May 8, 2008 lol, dont take my word for it, wait till someone who knows what they're talking about comes along ;) cost-wise, dealer clutch in the uk is about £150 and maybe 3-4 hours labour?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So about 600 quid then! I assume you are taking into account that the engine is now pulling a car rather than just spinning over.... :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mic_VR 3 Posted May 8, 2008 My car dips the revs when you start to lift the clutch and pull away, I just give it more gas mate! :lol: It won't be the clutch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted May 8, 2008 Is there any way to adjust the bit point on the hydraulic clutch system? I'm guessing no.... :shrug: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MonkeyVR6 0 Posted May 9, 2008 I took it to VW today and they said not to worry about it. :scratch: Guess I'll leave it, its not really a big deal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
