#1: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 180tomtom, Location: West YorkshirePosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 3:47 pm ---- I have just purchased a GTi 180, The car is absolutrly mint, no complaints what so ever.. apart from just one thing, wondering if it is a common fault.
When i set off from stationary there is quite a nasty judder, kind of like the engine mounts are loose type of a judder. Once you are mooving thou it completly goes away untill you stop and set off again.
Any thoughts??

#3: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: gpvecchi, Location: ItalyPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:01 pm ---- You have to check engine support near cam belt. If that's good, probably you clutch is about to f..k up... It's not rare on GTI 180 (at around 60000 km)...

#5: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 180tomtom, Location: West YorkshirePosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:10 pm ---- Milege is just over 57k.. i can tell the car has been very well looked after. There is just this judder as i say. i have had a 140 GTI before and i could of sworn it did the same thing.

#7: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: rttam, Location: devonPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:30 pm ---- mine does this from cold and has every morning since iv had it and iv done 42k since i bought it and never had a problem stops doing it after half mile or so i wouldnt worry too much
#8: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 180tomtom, Location: West YorkshirePosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:30 pm ---- Just gets a little bit irritating, speically when you have passengers in car.. Bit of a perfectionist so will have to get it sorted out lol..
So i am looking for engine support at cambelt side... failing that it should be the clutch that needs replacing..??
#9: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 206de, Location: KentPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:37 pm ---- Most likely to be the clutch I had mine replaced about 4k miles ago on mine and the cold weather has brought a little judder ever so slightly in the mornings
Must be a bad clutch design!! I would consider maybe uprating if you do decide to change the clutch as the judder will more than likely come back after a few thousand miles!
#10: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 180tomtom, Location: West YorkshirePosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:43 pm ---- I don't know... poor french lol. They certainly know how to extract power from an engine. Just not for very long lol...
What sort of clutches would you reccomend me to be looking at ??
#11: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 206de, Location: KentPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:55 pm ---- Haven't looked into any alternative clutches mate but if I'd known my new one was gonna start showing signs of the juddering again so early on, I would have got another lol
#12: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 180tomtom, Location: West YorkshirePosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:56 pm ---- Bit of a shame that really if it comes back so quickly. How much was the standered clutch?? did you fit yourself??
#13: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: Antix, Location: WorcesterPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 4:58 pm ---- I had the juddering, most pronounced when you pull away at speed.
I had a new clutch fitted which solved it. The clutch was SAKS branded (German, as used in VW, Audi, Mercedes) and was a superb clutch, the biting point was very low which helped fast gearchanges
#14: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 180tomtom, Location: West YorkshirePosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 5:02 pm ---- How many miles have you got out the clutch so far Antix???? and has the juddering never returned??

Car was sold, it had the original clutch replaced at 65k miles.
New clutch had only done about 1000 miles when I sold it.

Cost me 300 notes plus £60 to skim the flywheel, got it fitted at Mr Clutch
Also its only a very slight judder atm, think it might have been related to how cold it was because I've only noticed it at the beginning of this week and haven't noticed it over the last two days which have not been as cold!
But still the juddering on such a new clutch is unwelcome!! lol
#19: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 180tomtom, Location: West YorkshirePosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 5:46 pm ---- £360 thats quite a fair bit.. and with it doing it again... sounds like its a bit of a waste
#20: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: Lee., Location: Blackwood, South WalesPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 5:48 pm ---- Mine's been getting progressively worse since the cold weather set in, it's quite violent now lol
#21: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: 206de, Location: KentPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 5:52 pm ---- Like I said it was only a slight judder and think it was related to it being so cold and the 180 sat on the drive for a few days due to being snowed in, but the clutch is guaranteed so can have it replaced if it comes back again
...plus the slight judder was nowhere as bad as my old clutch!
#22: Re: GTi 180 Slight Juddeering When setting off Author: stuy180, Posted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 6:23 pm ---- I have also replaced the clutch in mine.
£360 is a bit steep, did they tell you the flywheel needed doing?... Very common for Mr Clutch to tell people this!
I bought the clutch kit from main dealer at about £80 and it cost me £110 to get fitted at a local Peugeot specialist.

Did you have the same problem then? Did replacing the clutch fix the problem?
