Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Clutch replacement...

    Hi

    I had minor service today and mentioned staff about shuddering while take of (not every time - intermittent).
    After they finish minor service, vw service advised me that they will book another appointment just for clutch replacement - free of charge since car has still 5 months warranty left and also this become on going issues on b8 132 passat.
    I checked recalls and nothing about clutch issue for 132 passat models.
    Is anyone knows what is involved in this job and can dealers can do properly this job?

    Gearbox has to be removed and partially dismantled.

    Any decent dealer tech can do it, providing they follow the workshop manual and use the correct special tools for setting the clearances, etc.
