When taking away forwards or reversing uphill the clutch on my semi-auto Airdream stinks. Similar to slipping clutch ? cratch:

Never thought of that, thanks- will get it checked. It does smell more like a slipping clutch, but you never know.

Citroen dealer took it for test drive- no noise / smell or signs of car stuttering.
They told me that the clutch is covered by warrany for only six months as its a wear and tear item. 6 months !!!!!!,. But mine is an Auto, therefore I feel I cannot be accused of misuse , riding the clutch pedal etc.
Got diagnostics test done and ecu update, so heres hoping.

Well, that feeling of hope was short-lived, reversed up a steep incline and burning smell returned accompanied by a screeching noise.

Citroen are going the wrong way about their customer service regarding warranty work. As many taxi and PH drivers buy the Berlingo because they give a massive luggage space, interior space and the sliding doors. Like myself and other drivers I would have to think twice if I would buy another simply because Citroen don't want to know about warranty work.
