A170 CDi Slipping clutch?

I recently bought an A170 CDi and am very happy with it, but there is one small niggle that i don't know is normal or could be a fault. shortly after a gear change and when accelerating, it does the same as a manual (stick shift) car when you ride the clutch....it slips for about two seconds and then settles down again. Is this normal? <p>MBNZ

Re: A170 CDi Slipping clutch?

doesn't seem so.<br> You better have it checked by dealer, such <br> slip could have very negative effect<br> on transmission components.<br> besides that, any problems with 170CDI ?<br> I'm going to buy 170 CDI long version in next<br> few weeks. How do you feel the engine? Is it<br> strong enough? Have you had a chance to compare<br> it with ie. A160 gasoline model?<br> It is noisy after warming up?<br> <p>ans4.polbox.pl

Re: A170 CDi Slipping clutch?

Apart from the slipping clutch I have no complaints at all. The car is very nippy and accelerates much quicker than i would have expected it to. I've even spun the wheels a few times! It is a little noisy when cold, but once it has warmed up it is almost as quiet as a petrol engined vehicle.<br> Would i buy another one? Most definitely!<p>no-dns-yet.demon.co.uk
