Problems again...CLONK

Post by morris_GTI »

Another issue today on the way to work... :(

So, i was driving normally (5th gear around 60mph) then came to a village, so went down to 3rd gear 30mph... it was happily going along for a few minutes then the gear starting biting intermittently and it then suddenly 'Clonked' :S

So, i came out of the village to put my foot down and the car was considerably slower, it was not revving above 5000 revs (max redline is 6000 i think) and the car was massively slower.

So i pulled over and turned the ignition off for 3 seconds, started it up again... and of course... it was working fine again ?!


somebody tell me what the F*ck is going on lol!

Cheers,
