Whoop noise 1.6 Tdci Ford Focus 2012

[Fequalsmxa]

Here is a little info,

I purchased the car around 2.5 years ago and almost immediately, while I was working away the wife said there was an issue with clutch. From memory it was juddering but I honestly can't remember, anyway, the clutch and Dmf were changed out at my local garage, at this time the car had completed about 28k miles.

The car is now on 54k miles and when pulling away it occasionally has a whoop. I don't have hill start assist but it does sound like the brakes are stuck on, today to prove it wasn't the brakes, I put the hand brake on tight and hard on brakes with right foot and whilst in first, lifted clutch to stall point and beyond once or twice. Low and behold, there she is, "Whoop" - great!

I guess this is a sure sign of my need for another clutch kit and dmf? Is it one or the other? I would just change both anyway but is there a way of knowing?

I think this is a known issue with this car / engine?

I've never done much on a car before, brake pads and oil change has been my limit but I'm going to have some time off in January and I would find a sense of achievement if I were to complete it myself. Is there an idiots guide I should read first of should I just stay well clear?

My 2012 1.6 TDCI did this. When i researched it on the net it seemed it was quite common. I just ignored it as it didnt do it that often. My dads A3 2.0 TFSI also does this.

If its not juddering or slipping I'd just leave it.
