had a slipping clutch on myy 8 or so year old 500 recently so dropped it off at a garage today.
they asked me to pop by and a big piece of interal car (the non technical term!) demonstrating that a bit of the gearbox was not rotating and a sludge of oil containing pieces of clutch, explaining my recent issues. as it's a bank holiday they can't quote a price until tomorrow. i fear it will be beyond economical repair as the classic phrase goes.
does anyone have experience of needing a new gearbox and the cost? - they say most of the labour is already taken care of due to the car already being taken apart. thanks in advance for any knowledge!
