Dear all,
I have just acquired a 1.4 Doblo 8V Dynamic although it's anything but dynamic.
I have two things happening that I think may be related. Opening and closing the throttle causes the gear lever to move up to 2 inches for and aft. You can feel a thump through the chassis. At the same time there is clutch judder which is almost impossible to manage. I can just about get it to pull away smoothly but its hard. It's done 77,000, it's manual with 5 gears. No evidence of any oil leaks or smell of oil on clutch.
I am assuming the two are related here - how big a job is replacing the mountings? Is it a home job. I have all the usual like trolley jacks etc to work it with but will only attempt if it's simple bolt on / bolt off replacement.
Is there anywhere to get a Haynes type manual for this?
Thanks for any answers
