I picked up a MY00 UK Turbo Saloon yesterday and it runs like a dream.....apart from.....

Poodling along and going through the gears everything is hunky dorey.

If I get a nice bit of road and accelerate hard in 2nd, when I change up to 3rd and lift the clutch to give it more gas the clutch seems to go "brrrrr" and make quite a load vibration sound, for about half a sec. Doesn't seem to happen if I lift the clutch up completely B4 applying gas.

Don't think the clutch is knackered as surely I would have problems all the time.....

Bit worried though - t'was my life savings!!

 

Hi grandjambon,


Did you ever find the solution to your vibration, its just I have the exact same problem and its driving me nuts!!, mines a MY99 Turbo Saloon.

 

Best to let the clutch in completely before opening the throttle, or you will soon need a new one.

Is it the clutch or is it the heat shield resonating?
