GTI is juddering?

Post by Minstral »

just come home and as i came off the dual carriage way from doing only 60mph, put the car into 4th went round the corner and it started to judder as i went to accerate, i thought it must be because im in a to higher gear, so put into 3rd plenty of revs and still did. once it gets past a certain stage it was alright.
when i got home i had a quicl look round and underneath and i could here the distinct smell of burning rubber. i let the car idle then not in gear tapped the throttle and you could hear it still juddering.

i have just had the clutch done just over a week ago now if that has anything to do with it

any light shedded will be brilliant, will be seeing a garage tomorrow to have a look.
