Hello
I have a '04 Golf and noticed when changing gears the motion is feeling a bit less than smooth.
My next step should be?
Many thanks

ensure the clutch is fully disengaging and is correctly used.

not srue why I bothered... zzzz
Well clutch plate drag is the most likely cause that'll be worth fixing.
Mechanically unskilled often haven't a clue when a clutch is dragging - especially with many cars having synchro on reverse these days. So it is a very valid diagnosis.

WAKE UP!
I'm not srue I like your attitude...

Don't bother next time then. You got a sensible answer: it's the most likely problem. The next most likely is a change linkage that needs adjusting.
followed by the DMF (he forgot the info. that it is a diesel)
Ditto! you come and ask a question and get a question from who I consider one of the resident experts and a nice guy and you get a reply like that pffft .. take it to a garage and pay for a diagnosis chap!
Evening Chris :)
