	Did you replace/tighten the roller bolt correctly?
Jenko_Sport	posted on 1st Jul 08 at 18:17
	Me. Its all gone wrong because of the clutch release bearing, been needing to change it since i had the car but been putting it of as i hate taking the boxes off these:lol:
Vaux Lad	posted on 1st Jul 08 at 18:15
	Who rebuilt it?
Jenko_Sport	posted on 1st Jul 08 at 18:05
	And as for the other project thats still not done:lol:
Jenko_Sport	posted on 1st Jul 08 at 17:08
	Well after further inspection: Clutch has gone so im guessing thrust bearing has gone (been making abit of a noise for abit) and the the arm has gone through the clutch plate as the car juddered before it died. Then the jolt has sheered on of the roller bolts then causing the belt to come off. Conclusion: Its dead:(

	Cambelt tensioner snapped this morning so time to drop a 1.6 in it i think. Another problem swaying me towards getting rid of the thing :( [Edited on 01-07-2008 by Jenko_Sport]
