  2. Slipping clutch how long did yours last?

    Mine started slipping a fair while ago and have done a couple of thousand miles, it only seems to slip if I floor it at 80 in 6th, and it doesn't seem to have got any worse:confused:

    Clutch slipping AGAIN!!! (Not my problem anymore)

    My TDI Sport 130 had a standard clutch replacement and DMF about 3/4 months ago, possibly 4k on the clock since. The car is standard and not mapped, but lately noticed a bit of slip and vibration from the clutch AGAIN (in 4th, 5th & 6th). The work was done by a reputable VAG specialist and...
  4. Are these symptoms likely caused by the timing chaing slipping?

    Hi guys, My SEAT Ibiza 1.2 S 54 reg has the following symptoms: 1. When I accelerate (particularlly when accelerating harder and going up hills where the engine has to work harder) the engine jumps occasionally as if either the engine is misfiring or a belt/chain is slipping. 2. The...
  5. slipping belt?

    i suspect a belt is slipping. no idea how many belts the tdi 150 has, but there's a horrible screeching when using the power steering at idle (< 1000 rpm) and you can hear it very briefly when starting it's also much more rattly at idle, but if you rev maybe 100rpm more, it goes back to normal...
  6. Toledo v5 timing chain Problem

    I have a 2000 Toledo v5 (150bhp). Couple of weeks ago I started the engine up and it sounded terrible - as if it was badly miss-firing. I took it to my local garage who eventually told me it was probably the timing chain slipping and that it was very slack. They also said it would be more than...

    Hello people. I had my Leon PD150 remapped last week and it was running really well.It made 318 lbft though which initially I was worried about and now it seems I might have been right to worry. Occassionally when driving between 3-4000rpm the revs dip from 3500 back to 3000 then back up...

    Slipping belt squealing kind of noise...

    I have just noticed that when under moderate acceleration from 1750rpm~ (40mph) up to 2000rpm~ in 4th gear my progress is accompanied by this new noise which is best likened to a belt slipping. Car is 6 months old, 4k miles FR170. I'd be interested to hear if anyones else has had a similar...
  11. Slipping belt?

    Has anybody experienced a slipping belt on a Cupra? Mine is 1 year old with 12500 miles & has just started doing it. It seems to be the alternator belt, although it's more of a swishing sound than the typical squeal. It's worse at start up but still does it even after a 50min drive to work -...

    Well something was bound to go wrong sooner or later and after 94000 miles the old clutch is slipping nicely. Any idea how much a new clutch would/should cost - my parents have booked the car in at Mr Clutch without telling me [:@] I'm not going to leave them alone with it at any point in...

  18. My clutch was slipping .... now it isn't

    I am a bit confused. Last week, the clutch on my Bora was slipping when I pushed the accelerator beyond a certain point in the high gears. In the highlands of Scotland over the bank holiday weekend, I had to choose my overtaking opportunities carefully as I didn't want to be pushing too hard...

    I have a Toledo Tdi 130 which I've had since the end of April. I've had it remapped recently. I've noticed recently that the clutch is slipping in 4th, 5th and 6th gear (the revs race ahead without the acceleration, then the revs dropped like I have changed up a gear). Does it sound like...
