My roundnose is nearing 110k and the clutch pedal is almost on the floor before it'll change gears. It grinds into 1st and reverse and several bleeds of the system have had no effect.
My local garage reckon the clutch plate springs are worn and weak and this week it's getting more of a struggle to change gear.
My quandary is that although she's a fairly reliable old girl her bodywork is quite poor and I'm not convinced that the cost of a new clutch could be sensibly justified.
To balance it out,she owes me nothing,always starts,has new tyres and various other bits recently.
My other concern would be the dmf,as if that's duff then it really would be a struggle to justify getting it done, especially as I couldn't do the job myself.
So,what would you do and if you've recently had a clutch replaced,what did it cost?
