The wife noticed a small issue the last week in traffic,when u engage first gear u can hear/feel a very slight thud or thump,sitting idle u can get it to do it in any gear slightly, otherwise gearbox perfectly smooth no issue at all, also this thud is there when car is hot or cold. If u go into gear slowly u can't hear it.

Iv never really noticed as I alway have clutch engaged in traffic.

I might change gear oil anyway.

Car is 07 Vrs diesel. 80k miles.

Anyone else heard this?

Yep I'm having the same issue, did the gearbox oil change improve things?

What's the best gearbox oil and do I need 75w 90, fully or semi synthetic?

A dragging clutch perhaps...

Is the bite point almost immediately on raising the pedal?

If so I'd be inclined to bleed brake/clutch fluid and if symptoms persist have a mechanic look at it, maybe the master/slave cylinder seals are worn.

Deleted due to duplication.

I had a new dmf, clutch and slave cylinder in the summer and the clunky/notchy ness was there before so it can't be any of those.

It feels like a delayed engagement but only in the first two gears but not always.
