Hi All,

I was hoping someone could help me diagnose the fault with my car.
I suspect it is the DMF/Clutch which has gone because when I depress the clutch the car makes a vibrating noise.
In the video I am in 3rd gear doing 20mph. I have read elsewhere that you can "live" with a bad DMF but my car is pretty undriveable as it is. This all happened pretty suddenly too without warning.

Any advice/ insights would be really appreciated.

Cheers

How is the idling? That;s another sign of a bad DMF.

It's very hard to tell anything from that video - as the other poster has said, take your car to a garage. It could be something else in the clutch mechanism (throw-out bearing, etc).
