R55 Worrying clutch noise
Worrying clutch noise
So I've put a little over 600 miles on my Clubbie since I picked it up last week, and overall everything is pretty good. However, I do have one issue. Occasionally I will let the clutch out to the friction point but it will not engage, then I will hear an audible "clunk" and it will suddenly engage/lurch almost like the clutch was stuck. Like I said, this is very occasionally, it does it a little more often when the engine is cold, but not consistent enough that I'm confident if I take it to the dealer (which I probably will do regardless) they will be able to recreate the problem. This has happened probably 10 times total in the last 2 weeks.
Has anyone experienced something similar to this, and if so, could you point me in the right direction to tell the SA when I take it in?

I have not BUT I can say that putting my clutch into 1st gear sometimes requires me to push harder than I would like and a clunk has resulted but again only with 1st gear and not the others. Basically first gear is very stiff and reluctant at times.
