1.2 active air con, 6 spd 112k miles-
Driving home yesterday, came to a junction dipped the clutch to change gear and the pedal hit the floor with an audible pop fron the engine bay.
Automatically assumed clutch release bearing failure and picked up a luk clutch kit after work with a view to getting it changet tomorrow,
After closer inspection tonight i have found the plastic push rod from the slave cylinder snapped off on top of the gearbox,
Obviously this needs replacing but my question is- Is this push rod likely to fail for no reason or is it probable that the clutch is u/s and this has caused the failure in some way?
Have the clutch kit so can throw it in but would rather not if i can avoid it as i have no garage at the minute so it wil be a driveway job- brrrrrrr
