Thanks Jr. I will definitely make them do the master cylinder first before going down any other route.

Good guess. It’s the 2ltr Turbo diesel. Until March last year, I was doing a good mix of urban and long distance driving which it seemed ideally suited for. With Covid the work I was doing that involves distance disappeared. So in the last year, it’s been much more urban driving, which may not have helped.

Diagnosed clutch problem whilst still drivable by trusted local garage. They recommended Autotechnic, as unable to sort themselves. Autotechnic had a quick look for free and reckon clutch and flywheel needed as minimum. Early symptoms juddering and grinding in 2nd gear. Then struggled to get any gear until managed to select first and got stuck in it limping round massive motorway roundabout. Most scary!

Hi Trickstargee Think I’ve answered most of your questions in previous post, except that there was no resistance on the clutch pedal. I could easily push it right in to the carpet!

Hallo, Has anybody out there had the clutch and flywheel (and also possibly gear box) replaced on a Yeti? If so, did you subsequently get a good bit more use and mileage from it? I think my Yeti’s engine at 86,000 miles should have a good bit of life left in it. Am I right? It’s a 2013 SE TDI. The 2ltr diesel with 2 wheel drive.

Sorry. Think my last posting should have been a new topic. Newbie user. Doh!

Hallo, Captain Bibbles is my hubby. He’s not really a car person. He was just trying to help me out, while I was dealing with other problems related to not having the car. Sorry for the delay. There was no resistance when putting foot down on clutch. I am going to ask the garage to quote for the worst case scenario too, before I make any decisions.

It’s all a bit of a blur, but I believe I was able to get neutral with engine off. Also, managed to get 2nd with some excessive clutch pumping.

Yes, there was juddering especially when ‘feathering’ the clutch eg setting off up very steep hills. Also, there was grinding especially when trying to select 2nd gear.
