2015 Skoda Octavia clutch

It was to do with a sensor issue possibly on the crank but they couldn’t find the fault although whatever they did with the diagnostic has cleared that issue.

Which engine is it out of curiosity, some have DMF, some don’t, I’d assume yours doesn’t

I’m not that sure you’d actually need to do the flywheel then.
