Default audi a3 clutch problems?

right dunno if anyone can help.. my car struggles to get into reverse gear crunchs and clutch bites right at the bottom i tried bleeding the slave changing the fluid replacing the slave weird thing is its worse when warm the clutch is fine doesnt slip but i know this setup uses a dual mass flywheel which i am unfamiliar with and maybe this is the problem anyone help
right there is nothing wrong with the master slave or pipework inbetween deff no air in the system and it cant be oil on friction plate because clutch is stong doesnt slip at all!!! think im gonna have to strip it just wondered if anyone had this probably before

does your clutch make any noises when warmed up? which would suggest a duel mass flywheel is faulty !also a quick check underneath the car to check for any greasy looking deposits around the bellhousing area this may be hard with the undertray in place.another tip there is a recall on duel mass flywheels a simple phone call to a dealer may help
