And yes the clutch is fine , its a 6 paddle jobbie which is spot on.
Lammy, ive had this happen to me a few times, im not being funny but, what i was doing, was trying to slam it in to gear, instead of smoothly changing as rapidcossie says i think when your giving it some as youve said, we try and change up so aggresive, you just cant find third as youve said in your post, its perfct when your driving normal, so if there was a problem surely it would be there all the while just a thought anyway mate..
