crap, reminds me of a year ago the battery and alternator went on my van, then the clutch, then it snowed (cant get out) then the frost had smashed the prefilter housing, got new ones, and it had smashed the membrane housings!

6 or 7 weeks off and lots of spending money...never good combo

hope you get it sorted soon mate

it seems like a lot of money for a clutch?

Its not the clutch its a bolt in the gearbox, sheared the head off a bolt in the box and went round the gears a few times evenually coming to rest on the diff, apparently its acts like magnet.
So now i'm having a re-con box, new clutch, and everthing else that needs for it to be back on the road. £925 on the rd by tuesday :o
i woulndt mind if it was an old van but its only 7yrs old 54000 miles.
just goes to show you never know.
