Welcome to our new sponsor Lecatona, a brand dedicated to enhancing performance for VAG group sports cars, including SEAT, Audi, Volkswagen and Škoda. Specializing in High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) upgrades.
When i rest my foot on the clutch i can feel a vibration and when i press it down to change gear.The garage say this is normal with a tdi.
Its not a massive vibration but i do find it annoying,can't remember if my other cupra tdi did this
Mine does this, always has. Not got any worse overtime so I'm not too worried about it.
If I remember correctly, raising the revs slightly maves the vibration pulse quicker, then raising the revs even more makes the vibration go away.
Yup that's what i did on mine in VAGCOM - raised it to 945rpm and it made it a lot better. Fairly sure it's the Dual Mass Flywheel that causes it although i've no idea how 'worn' it has to be for it to happen.
Yes - that field lets you adjust both ways.

The highest value you can enter is 33768
Channel 2: idle speed
* No login required
* The stock adaptation value should be 32768 (corresponds to 903 rpm).
* Increase or decrease this to change idle speed.
Not really,i have had my cambelt etc changed a few weeks ago and don't remember this vibration before,but the garage say as the clutch cable is conected to the engine it will always feel like this
Odd - can you see the engine visibly shaking too? Might be time to look at engine mounts? Have you had any clutch slip that you've noticed?
It dos not matter how good your engine mounts are the engine will move!
Th vibration is normal and you will be pleased to know that the mk1 leon is probably one of the better vw group cars when it comes to refinement through the pedal box. If you have any doubt try a mk5 golf 1.9 tdi 105hp, my bro has one and its awful at idle!

just to add, same car & stock and I have no vibration at any point when pressing clutch pedal.
never had that i recall over the last 60k anyway.
no wondering if should
my rpm has always been high and vag-com says 903 -> is that normal high or set high?

903 is normal.
945 is high
what are the reasons for adjusting idle higher then ???
to add i dont have any vibration that i noticed
on the other hand markwales has something , suspect its the thrust bearing i think he said but this makes a noise pressing & depressing clutch

Had the very same, car (150 fr tdi) went in for it's 60k service running perfectly, when I got it back with new cam belt & water pump fitted it had that same vibration, took it back to the garage but no fault was found they said it was the DMF. Anyway the vibration got less and less until it finaly stopped altogether.
I suspect mine was more resonant with the dogbone mount uprated, either way it cured the odd 'knocking' from the clutch too
