Go easy on the detail there, buddy! Seriously though, have you spoken to a garage, or, better yet, a transmission specialist?

Ah! You don't have a tiptronic. Opel call it Easytronic. Clutch life on them seems to be poor

Easytronic is based on a fully manual set-up – which is why the fuel consumption penalties
are so nominal and why the option price is so cheap
