    Default Shunt on clutch biting and generally feeling slack

    Hi guys,

    First post since the introduce myself thread, anyhow.

    Had the Vectra (1.9 Cdti 120) for a couple of days and really lovin it however

    There seems to be a real slackness in the gear change. When the clutch bites it feels like its taking up slack. Also when you go on/come off accelerator there is a shunt too. Even it you rev the engine you can feel the odd 'sway' from it.

    Now i've done a search and C.V boots come up alot but it just screams knackered mount to me.

    Any ideas guys

    Could also just be very worn mate. 106 on original clutch ain't bad
