Call received from Technician today. Clutch and flywheel replaced as well as door alignment/ wind noise sorted, a rear leather seat repair done and an alloy wheel re-finished. Car will be ready tomorrow, no charge. If correct... If Heineken did "that's how to give" proper after sales service...

Wasn't it Carslberg  :wink:

Got the car back yesterday, new clutch and all. The noise is banished.  Superb and whilst I thought it was fine before, gear selection now feels silky smooth.  Brilliant!  :smiley:

Albeit on a lesser scale, the car has started groaning a bit again on take off, more so in reverse.  How can this be after replacement of clutch and flywheel?

Sounds like a top notch dealer. Care to mention who it is? Hopefully reasonably close as I'm looking for a new dealer for my servicing. Its the only thing worrying me about coming back to VW.
