Lupo 3L: Starts in N, not P - Strange Issue.

Hi everyone,

I'm having a strange problem with my Lupo 3L.

1: It doesn't start in P (Park).

2: I need to put it in "N" (neutral), then turn on the ignition, and then wiggle the clutch slightly at the front, and only then will the clutch engage automatically?

2: Then start the engine, and then do the same thing again – messing around with the clutch, getting in, switching to driving mode, and then it drives "normally."

"If I then put it back in 'P' and turn it off, it doesn't start again, not even in 'N'. It only starts after the procedure of fiddling with the clutch cable."

What is this supposed to be?!

It would be great to get a few answers that could lead to the "perpetrator" .

Thank you and best regards to you all.

Sepp.

Hi,
Do you have a fault scan for us? Are all the position feedback signals plausible? Is the control unit error-free?

Perhaps we should start like this, then you can expect a more meaningful answer...

"This applies to both of your posts..."

Please read the value of the clutch slave cylinder from the transmission control unit.
Possibly re-list.
When was the last time the guide sleeve was replaced?
