Guys
I have done a bit of reading and seem to have got my head a bit muddled.
I have a high mileage 04 tdi cupra 150arl its still on its original clutch and flywheel. I have developed a vibration slightly noticeable on startup and idle, I also get a whine on deceleration more noticeable when going from 6th to 5th with what can only be explained as a woooooing noise. Noticeable slight whine when coasting and engine not under load. I have no issues selecting any gears and it pulls well throughout the gear range with no clutch slip.
The rattle or engine noise does go quieter when clutch pressed, what am i looking at is it CRB or release bearing or is it time for new clutch and DMF or do i do all of them. Like I say its my daily motorway commute which gets 10k oil changes (or near enough) and i plan on keeping the car until it dies.
what your thoughts guys as im leaning towards DMF but after much reading could be one or two of the bearing issues.
cheers guys
