VXR8 gearbox noise
Discussion
Got a year old LS3 VXR8 but only had it 2 months, got a whine from the gearbox and a shakey clutch when pulling away and also the clutch pedal stayed half down the other day, bought it from a well known dealer, just need some info to fire at them when i go down there, anyone else had this problem??
Clutch pedal staying down under load is a known issue (with no real fix, though apparently only just in the last year in Oz there are some steps that can be taken). Shudder and noise though sounds like a replacement job. Mine made a noise when I purcahsed it and it was replaced underwarranty. They should be pretty quiet.

mine is still down there mate maybe ill get to see you down there !!!
if they got the work done before xmas then it will be a call from them in the morning
Clutch upgrade solves the judder, the pedal staying down is due to crap hydraulic fluid - get them to bleed it properly (ie from the slave underneath) and that will solve it for a while, long term have a remote bleed line fitted in place of the hex tube inside the bell housing as you cant do it yourself really.
