Audi S3 8L - clutch Switch suspect ??

Post by P1LAYA-ZN »

Good day gents,

So, for a while now I've noticed when shifting between gears but most noticeable from 1st to 2nd gear, the car over revs and if you try and go quickly from 1st to 2nd it over revs badly and battles to get into 2nd.
Could this be a result of a faulty clutch switch ?
Does Goldwagen stock this ?
Would this pick up a code on a scan, cos I don't get any fault codes ?
what could the other culprits be ?

Yes vcds will say clutch switch or just check in measuring blocks. Should go from 0 to 1
Leak in intake/vaccum system somewhere.
