They have to take the gearbox off the car to change or inspect the clutch anyway. When you have your verdict and if it is the gearbox, if you supplied a replacement gearbox then if its a friendly garage they'll probably throw it on for you while they do the clutch. But do check first that they will. Plenty of 206's in the scrap yards these days so you should be able to get a cheap gearbox. They can be quite tricky to do / lift even if you've got a ramp.
Are you sure that the water wasn't empty anyway and the stuff all over the road wasnt gearbox oil? Very strange connection as already said.
Worst case scenario if they take the box off and something is really really drastically wrong you could always throw the car on ebay in that state and buy another one - they're so cheap now.
I will certainly give that a go!
I'm going to get a few other bits done at the same time, if it is economical, so hopefully theyd be willing to do that.
Im 99% certain it was water, it was clear, and didnt smell or have any other texture etc.
I cant make the connection either, but the RAC man seemed to think it was logical?
I guess I could get another one if need be, mix and match the best parts from both (eg the new tyres and battery etc) then get whatever i can for the buggered one!
Thankyou all so much for your help.
Any other input is ofcourse greatly appreciated!
