I have recently taken my car which is a 2015 Renault Clio IV RS 200 Cup EDC into Renault Dealership Service Centre due to clunking noises from my DCT gearbox.
They have done a software update, relearn adaptives, and readjust clutch touch points. Noises have gotten less but still there in Normal Mode (Automatic) from time to time but besides that I have another problem I have noticed.
Today I was driving in Normal Mode (Manual) which I rarely do and I notice a clunk noise and stall like skip/jerk from the car on automated downshifts (when car downshifts itself without me pressing the paddles).
To explain the scenario in detail: Car is in 5th gear, apply gentle brake to prepare coming to a stop, letting the car computer automate the downshift by itself 5-4-3-2-1. I notice when the car is doing the automated downshifts it does not rev match when going down gears which was weird and once it goes to about gear 3 or gear 2 the car will jerk/skip and clunk. It feels like the car computer or clutch is confused.
I was wondering why the automated downshifts in manual mode does not rev-match when dropping down gears? All it does is just drops the rpm lower which makes me believe this is causing the jerking/skipping. Though I thought the clutch is disengaged cause I’m braking already so I don’t know how it jerks? — Does anyone who owns the same car know why the automated downshift in manual mode is jerking and confused for me? How do I fix this? Does anyone else get the same problem or is it only me which would mean something is badly wrong?
