Cheers Cliff got hold of the garage been to get it checked and they think its the pin at the back of the peddle was abit of play in it £7 happy with that 😀 👍

I had 3 clutches and DMFs replaced on my 2014 A6. Audi changed one under warranty then another after just 6k miles. I regularly took manual cars over 100k miles and have never had to replace a clutch before so I know it's not my driving style. It's a design fault IMHO.

Hello Orlando, Many thanks for the additional information. Just a couple of things to consider:- How severe is the judder? Not really smooth, but tolerable, or worse than that? Does the invoice also confirm that the dual mass flywheel was also from the LUK brand? Have you contacted the garage who fitted this to gain their reaction? No offence meant re. the question of clutch-unfriendly driving style. As a bit of a downside, your journey pattern (just commuting?) does point to a higher than average number of stop, starts, and clutch operation, but having said that, the clutch should still sustain a good operation over your period of service. Re. A6 s having a bad reputation in respect of this issue- as we all appreciate, bad news travels faster than good, and although there are posts regarding similar issues, it would probably be unfair to conclude ‘they are all the same’. Sach clutches? Sorry Orlando, I cant offer experience of these being better or worse than LUK, since I’ve always used LUK to good effect, and not needed to try any other brand. My final stab at this would be to question the brand of DMF used, and to raise the issue which the garage, so that they can road test it and comment. Kind regards, Gareth.
