So a few weeks ago there was a topic here regarding clutch judder, I had been getting it a bit now and again and decided to get the car into the dealer to get it checked along with a few other things. I dropped the car off on Monday evening and have a 61 plate 118 as a loaner. I received a phone call this afternoon from them telling me they have found the cause of the judder.…the flywheel has collapsed!
Fortunately the car is covered under the AUC warranty and they are also going to replace the clutch.
Mine is a 2.2 and only covered just under 42k so I would advise anyone experiencing the judder to get it checked out.
I am now very glad I hadn't messed about with the CDV as I am sure they would have used this against the warranty claim.
My intention for posting this is so anyone suffering with a similar issue gets a "heads-up" and is not to start a debate about the CDV.
