Signs of Clutch or Transmission Problems

Don’t wait for a minor issue to become a major repair. If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to bring your car in for a diagnostic check:

• Delayed Response: Your car hesitates to shift into gear.
• Rough Shifting: You feel a jolt or shudder when the gears change.
• Strange Noises: Listen for grinding, humming, or whirring sounds.

FAQs about Clutch & Transmission

• What kind of transmission issues are common in European cars? 

We often see issues with dual-clutch transmissions (DSG), which are common in brands like Volkswagen. These require specialised knowledge and precise fluid changes to function correctly.

• Can you perform a DSG or S-Tronic transmission fluid service? 

Yes. We have the specific tools and expertise to perform a proper service on these advanced transmissions, which is crucial for their longevity and performance.

• My car shudders when I change gears. Is this a common problem? 

Yes, this is a common symptom in older European cars with DSG or other automatic transmissions. It can be caused by low fluid, a worn clutch pack, or a software issue, which we can diagnose.
