Jasonp Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Hi I have an Audi A3 2.0 TDI 140bhp 6 speed manual I’m struggling to get into reverse and first gears they do go in if I force it in but the only work around is I put in third then into the gear I want and it goes in smooth then all other gears have no issues at all hope someone can help thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffcoggin Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 The most likely cause is a worn clutch. Where is the bite point when using it i.e. how far up is the pedal when the clutch engages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonp Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 Thanks for the reply the bite is quite low not sure where it should be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffcoggin Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 The bite point should be approximately half way up the pedal travel. Assuming there is no slack in that pedal motion it's time to get the clutch repaired before you damage the gearbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
