My clutch failed at 14,000 miles. My ignition fails regularily, the ignition coil has been recalled and now I am having problems with my catalytic converter. I have owned vw's all of my life and traded in my last vw that had 170k on an original clutch.
2003 Volkswagen GTI transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 12 of 12, newest first, as owners wrote them.
During cold weather (below 20 degrees f), the clutch gradually gets closer & closer to the floor & will not pop back up. I am not able to shift when this problem occurs - the one thing I have been able to do is reach down, pull-up the clutch pedal & then it will work.this problem has happened at least 6 & the car is at the dealer right now getting fixed fro the second time. I bought the car new about a month ago & it has only 1100 miles on it.
