    Default Possible BIG issue!!

    Morning Folks!

    I think i may be just heading up the road of the dreaded DMF on its way out!

    On sunday i needed to move me car (150 cdti 07) on to the drive, so jumped in the car put the clutch in popped in reverese waited for coil light then TRIED to start it up! ( i never start it up with the clutch pressed let alone in gear, i know i should!)

    the car jaulted backwards, clutch came up half way jammed and popped out of gear!

    After filling me under pants and wondering what the hell just happened I try to turn the car over again and put me foot on the clutch and it was jammed half way down and really hard to push, solid even! So put me foot just underneath the clutch put little bit of pressure on it and it popped up.

    Let it tick over for 5/10 mins then took it round the block, no issue!

    Sometime's there is a weird noise coming from under the bonnet when i put the clutch down about 3 rd of the way?

    Question is anyone have any ideas what my car's crack is?!?!

    Its going back to the dealer on thursday to have a new Drop link and air con radiator and compressor fitted so im ringing them up today to ask them about me clutch as i when i got the car i got the top wack 5 year extended warranty.

    Just be nice to go in and tell them what it possibly could be, any help is appreciated,

    Cheers Dale

    That suggests that it is the DMF on its way out, it can last a fair while like that though.
