Default Clutch Problems a4 TDI 2004

Hello
Has anyone had clutch slip with their A4,mine has only done 33k miles and is only 18mts old. The clutch is slipping mainly in 2nd and 3rd gear. Audi are quoting £1300 if not covered under warranty.

very difficult to answer, they will blame the driver because ppl keep their foot on the clutch peddle or ride the clutch at traffic lights then its down to wear and tear, if you can prove other wise you will get it on the warranty clutch king in the UK supply and fit with 2 years warranty for around £250.00 ( £1300 ) is a joke

ps: they have to prove otherwise and chances are they will just replace it under warranty

130 standard or more hp dependant on customers request ( not a lot ) but the torx from the wheels is impressive but designed for economy not speed
