 Um, I'm not sure whats up with my Mk1 (gti golf) but I think I may have broken something. Obvioiusly I'll take it to a garage or a good mate but any idea what it is? Pulling away in 1st, going through all the gears even 5th and if I'm in reverse, it's not liking the initial pull away at all, it judders like f**k and sounds awful, then when you give it a fair bit of pedal it purrs like a kitten but getting there is pretty bad  I do drive the  of it, most of the time but at the same time, I do look after it - oil etc etc. The brakes are a bit dodgy and I'll get them sorted but otherwise it's a1. Any thoughts? Cheers Tan

Sounds like clutch judder! Have you been over cooking the friction lining? Of course you have!

I've no problem getting it into gear, going through them is easy, it judders and splutters for a while then when the speed is fairly decent it cruises lovely |
