#3: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: Nosvartu, Location: HarrogatePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 2:35 am ---- How much are they to replace?
#4: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: shell-vt, Location: durhamPosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 2:42 am ---- if im right , its a gearbox out job
#5: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: Nosvartu, Location: HarrogatePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 2:51 am ---- So its even worse than i thought... RIGHT new seat Ibiza it is.
#6: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 2:52 am ---- Thrust bearings are cheap, but as said above need gearbox off to get to it.
#7: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: Nosvartu, Location: HarrogatePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 2:56 am ---- Ill most likely get it repaired but as soon as i can sell this car its going as i've had nothing but trouble from my Peugeot. Which is actually really annoying because i like the look of the car i just wish they were built better.

Do you mean the pedal is to the floor?
Hydraulic or cable clutch?

Author: Nosvartu, Location: HarrogatePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 3:22 am ---- The clutch is in the normal position, it feels really light and it feels like its always engaged when its in gear it revs kicks in the speed then if i want to go faster i can't as its just like having the clutch pushed down.

Best to get a clutch kit fitted although you might have to get someone to tow you if it's far to a garage
#11: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: Domo, Location: EdinburghPosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 8:13 am ---- Kinda what happened to mine. Get new clutch. Try not drive it. I did and my clutch fork smashed through my plate and then parts broke off into my gearbox and hada get it replaced too!
#12: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: Nosvartu, Location: HarrogatePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 8:24 am ---- How much will this all cost me?
#13: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 8:26 am ---- big factor in it will be if you are attempting to do it your self?
as lot of the times it will cost you more in labour doing clutches / gearboxes etc.
#14: Re: Really need help asap!! Author: Nosvartu, Location: HarrogatePosted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 8:46 am ---- ive got zero experience in anything like this. if i knew how or had someone to help me id give it ago i just don't want to balls my car

He might be able to use the clutch and gearbox from my old engine? I have a new clutch setup and gearbox on the v6
