Before attempting to change the clutch, check the clutch fluid level and ensure there are no leaks in the hydraulic system. Low fluid or air in the system can cause slipping and shifting issues. If the fluid level is fine, and you still want to proceed with changing the clutch, make sure you have the proper tools and a repair manual for your specific model. Let me know how the fluid check goes or if you have any questions.

Locate the clutch master cylinder reservoir, which is usually near the brake fluid reservoir in the engine bay. It should have a marked minimum and maximum level. Ensure the fluid is between these marks. If it's low, top it up with the recommended brake fluid type for your VW Golf. Check for any visible leaks around the master cylinder and slave cylinder. Let me know if you find anything unusual or if you have more questions.
