Driving this morning and changing gear suddenly the clutch pedal went to the floor and failed to disengage the clutch at all.
Last time this happned a year ago the slave cylinder was replaced and this solved the problem.
This time the garage it was towed to say it is clutch failure. Do clutches suddenly fail compeltely like this without slipping or anything first? The pedal was completely loose and not returning when pressed but pumping it did bring some pressure back so it came back up but it still would not engage the clutch to allow gears to be selected.
Should I just beleive the garage that it is the clutch (last replaced about 2 years 20k miles ago) or could it just be somethign in the hydraulics?
(The car is on 75k, this is the third clutch, every single one has had a biting point very close to the floor even when newly fitted and needed care to get reverse, neither did last year's new slave cylinder help)
Anyone whoo had a new multipla clucth fitted recently what was the total cost?
Thanks
