I have a 2002 Jetta TDI, awesome car, 230k now, bought it with 140k...just started getting vibration only when starting off in first gear from a stop. Found a thread on TDIclub that basically says my problem is caused by a failing dual mass flywheel or failing motor mounts. So I have been exploring clutch replacement (done it a few times on other cars) and ran across a great write up on transmission removal. The write up stops short and I could only finish it by registering here, and I could only see the rest of the post by posting my own thread...so here you go, and nice tease and pretty smart imho.
If anyone has some insight as to how I can diagnose my problem I would appreciate it...I cannot find anything on how to rule out a failing DMF or bad motor mount.
thanks!
