Just got off the phone to the garage, who have my punto in due to gear problems....Here's the problem from yesterday:
Clutch could come out all the way and engine wouldnt stall in any gear, but wouldn't drive either....Gears felt fine apart from that.
Clutch also felt fine, happened more or less immediately with a couple of signs of clutch slip kind of effect minutes beforehand.
The garage said this:
Gearbox is being picked up tommorrow, we took the clutch out and it was all perfect. For a repair on a gearbox it's 150 plus parts, and for a new gearbox it's 360 plus labour.
I have the following questions which hopefully one of you guys could help me out with....
1. "the gearbox is being picked up tommorrow" - Who by????
2. Is there anything else that could be the problem????
3. Is that a reasonable price if they are right about the problem.
4. Should I sell my Punto as since October I've spent roughly the same on repairs as what I paid for it. (1800)
Please help people!
