Hi folks, this might be me being overly paranoid but ....when i change gear in my 300 tdi manual it sometimes after engaging the gear as you drive it sort of bounces not judders or slips just feels like bouncing movement until it reaches a speed. No problem when driving just after gearchange. is this the clutch on its way out or a suspension/bush prob? :?
Skibum346:
Could be your shockers are worn and the back and forth motion induced by backing off the power and putting it on again is causing you to wallow on the bouncy bits.. springs!

Hissing from under the bonnet...?
How is your clutch fluid level...?
Get someone to depress the clutch while you stick yer head under the bonnet.
It might be seals in the master cylinder.
