PDK replaced on my 2011 Turbo S

Last Monday when I was pulling into the parking lot at work I heard a clicking sound! after further investigation I was getting the clicking when in odd gears and under power. Took the car to the dealer and they sent the info and a video back to Germany and after working with warranty dept in the US a new PDK was ordered. When they went to swap the units they saw the flywheel had excessive play and ordered a replacement for that. I will hopefully get the car back tomorrow or Tuesday. The car is almost 2 years old and has 25,000 miles and has been problem free till now. I had driven the car in automatic 90% of the time till a few months ago when I started using manual 90% of the time. This is the first PDK the dealer has had to replace on any car and I'm glad they are replacing it instead of trying to repair it.

Got the car back and it is perfect, there is a definite difference in the feel which tells me that the problem was going on for a while before it broke
