#1: clutch problem solved! Author: kieron, Location: in the housePosted: Wed Aug 31, 2011 12:27 pm ---- Right ive only had the car a few days and the clutch had a major judder and first thing i did was buy a new kit, anyway to cut a long story short it had a new clutch fitted 10 months ago and has only coverd 3k since it was done
i was going to do the job myself but didnt fancy it after all it was a bigish job on a driveway
so got a new clutch kit trade and got a garage to fit it for me at the cost of £150 quid
got a phone call at midday today saying the the clutch relese bearing has shatterd inside causing it to ware a big hole in the shaft on the gearbox but the part with the seal was only £16 so well happy now and she lives for another day here is the pics
If anyone need anywork doing he charges a good rate at only £35 p/h he also will do any other job such as torsion bars, welding and even remapping

can't believe the release bearing fail in 10 months

Was there any metallic clattery type noises with your shattered bearing when accelerating in gear?
