6 Speed Manual Noises

[AndreiToma]

Car is a 58 Plate 2.0tdi CBAB, 6 Speed Manual, 185k miles. I’ve had a car for around 100k miles and it’s been really well maintained.

For the past little while the DMF was rattly, so  upon deciding that i wanted to keep the car for a while longer because in the 100k miles i’ve had it it’s given me no problems I booked in to have another full clutch kit (had already done one previously). The DMF failure symptoms were the usual rattling on idle with the clutch up, rattling at the biting point and no rattling when pressed in. 

Car came back today and a lot of the noise did go away however it was still making similar noises upon initially starting it up. I still took it away as i thought it would take a minute for everything to settle in. Around 10 miles later i come to a stop and open my window and i hear an awful metal to metal sound. I then take my foot off the clutch and the sound goes away. I then let the car cool down for about 30 mins and then the sound goes away. I will try and attach a video of this. Everything is very very confusing. 

I will try and attach videos of the noises a little while later! 

Thank you in advance for any help 🙂

This needs to go back to the garage that did the work asap. I wonder if they've not fitted something quite right

I agree the car should be returned immediately. In fact I would not have accepted it if the rattle was still there on start up.
