Bloodeeeeey hell!

What a freaking nightmare week with this bloody car and clutches!

Other than the rattle the bite was also on the floor, like 2mm off full depression.

So I figured something is up and helix wont believe me...so after popping to town yesterday, at 10:30am I was removing the gearbox...again.

Found Helix to be a BAD fit on the splines...see FB page for video.

So...fitted the new valeo I had for it originally.

All back together and no clutch...like half dissengagement. Figured on my own I just couldn't bleed it.

4pm, Ruan turns up. Brill...handy chap to have.

About 4/5hours later...

We start to take the box off...again. She just wouldn't bleed anymore...like 10litres must have gone through the system, pressure bleeders the lot were used... So was assumed I had buggered something up.

Box off in record time... And nope. All was fine.

So in the end we put the old worn pressure plate (LUK) back in with the new (Valeo) friction plate and bearing.

Back together and at 1am...we took it for a drive with once again a normal clutch feel and bite.

Bloody el.
I hate clutches today
