Can you give an idea of the price you paid, because it might be worth me taking the trip up there.
My DMF has been noticeable ever since I bought the car over 2 years ago. (15k miles ago). It doesn't sound as bad as yours though, but there is a definite chattering and a bang when starting the car on a cold day plus the clutch vibration when cold. Plus I've always struggled with the 3rd gear. (Clutch or synchromesh).
I've never forced the gears with the hopes of it lasting another year.
Thanks to everyone for the info.
