So I have an Audi TT 225 quattro. It has about 115k miles on it. I noticed that my clutch has not been working properly the colder it gets. recently, the clutch won't fully disengage. I can't get into first unless the wheels are rolling. It takes a lot of effort to get into first. Also, when I press down on the clutch, the pedal goes all the way to the floor smoothly, but it only comes out halfway, and then gets stuck. I have to put my foot underneath the pedal and pull it out the rest of the way. Are these problems related? Is it just the hydraulic transmission? or the master cylinder? The vehicle received a new clutch at 108,000 miles. It has a Fidanza single-mass 13 lb flywheel and a Spec pressure plate and full-face ceramic clutch disc. Thanks guys!

 

nebaudi, Have you figured it out yet? I'm having kind of the same issue but doesn't seem as bad as you. I'm going to bleed my clutch fluid and replace transmission fluid to see if it helps. Will let you know out come.

 

Hi. I'm now to the world of the Audi TT and this is my first post. However, this sounds like the symptoms I had on a 1999 Chevy Camaro that had a hydraulic line to actuate the clutch. Usually this indicates there is air in the system or you have a leak either at the master or slave.

If I'm correct, you should be able to confirm with a visual check of the hydraulic fluid. In my case, instead of nice clear fluid it was a dark color and was lower than normal.

I hope this helps...
