Compare Audi A3 clutch repair quotes from specialist garages

Since it was founded in 1909, Audi has been at the forefront of automotive innovation. It was the first to conduct crash tests, one of the first to use a dual-clutch gearbox, and in 1921, became the first German manufacturer to make a production car, the Audi Type K, with left-hand drive.

Impressively, Audi is also the most successful carmaker in the history of the World Car Awards, winning 11 titles since 2005 and five World Performance Car Awards as of 2022. Find out whether Audis are expensive to repair in this guide or take a look at how their maintenance costs compare with SEAT and Skoda.

The clutch in your car can last up to 150,000 miles, although this distance is affected by your driving style. If you don't change gears smoothly, the clutch will deteriorate until you may have to consider booking a clutch repair.

Booking a clutch and gearbox repair together is common since these parts go hand in hand. Unfortunately, when you notice your clutch slipping, this means the clutch plate has been worn down. You cannot repair it; instead, it must be replaced.

You could buy a new clutch and have a clutch specialist fit it for you, but it's best to get an expert opinion first.

A clutch repair or replacement will usually take several hours as it is a notoriously big job. Drivers often worry about the price, but that's what FixMyCar is here for; we can help you find an affordable clutch centre or book a mobile clutch repair.
