#1: clutch issue.. now will not start Author: lesalanos, Location: StokePosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 5:18 pm ---- Hi Guys,
Hoping you can help me
Since Saturday my clutch has been squealing when the pedal is touched.. looking through this might be the release bearing??
anyway whilst driving along today the car was "losing power" when driving and then 1/2 mile along the road stalled.
It now will not start. When turning the key it turns over and I can hear a "ticking sound" as though some electrics are not working. Also there is no power to the climate control panel.
Are these all likely to be linked to the initial clutch issue or is something else likely to be wrong?
The car is a 2000 X reg 2.0 HDi
The cam belt was changed 10,000 miles ago.
thanks in advance for any help

It did this on mine
the sensor you need to check is straight on top of the gear box , think its held in place by a 10mm bolt , get it out and see if there's any damage to the end of it.
