The seal was changed when the clutch was replaced, at least that's what they told me from the service.

Could it be from the clutch cable?

Peter, 90s have a solid flywheel not a dmf,
P406 not sure what to suggest, did they replace the flywheel at the same time or just the clutch kit :roll:

They didnt replace the flywheel. Only clutch. Im starting to think that they scammed me somehow and actually just f*cked up things.. They maybe put in there some old parts... Anyways on monday im leaving the car at another service and I just wont take my vehicle back until that annoying problem is localized!

hi everyone, I recently got myself a 406 hdi 90, and I do get this vibration too at sometimes when pulling away. Additionally, even on 2nd, 3rd or even 4th around 1500 rpm sometimes feel a slight judder / knock type thing. Rev down or up and it goes away. Was thinking it could be a mount, but haven't really looked into it.

I have had a vibration at around 1500rpm on all four of my Hdi 2.0. engines, generally only if you are pulling at that speed, under light load they don't do it, I have come to accept it as a characteristic of the engine, I only really noticed it because the 2.1td XMs I had been running for the previous 15 years were so smooth at low revs it was the first thing I noticed.

What can make it worse is a worn engine stabiliser on the top engine mounting.
