Will the clutch just go?

I know the boss will not spend money on this unless he has to!! I use the van to commute and visit customer sites - i.e, tomorrow will do 200 miles there abouts.

if its the release bearing then its a new clutch kit and possable fork.

if its a cable then its just a cable.. complete ball ach to do but its the easyer option.

:lol: Yeah, well we pushed it out of the junction then sat and pondered on it for a bit with the pedal stuck to the carpet. Managed to get it moving in first then it's easy enough to change gears. Luck was on my side getting back and all the lights were on green :lol: Got it sorted for £80 all in, which I thought was fair as it looked like an ass ache that I couldn't be bothered with.

Count yourself lucky. My clutch pedal snapped on the A3 the other week and left me stranded in the middle of a crossroad in rush hour :lol: Common fault apparently.
