Title: Clutch gone
Post by: tack43 on April 21, 2008, 11:54:12

Clutch went last night. Went very heavy and won't fully disengage. I think the pivot has punched through the release fork. Anyone had a simular experience. I'm running a 300TDi and R380 gearbox.

Thanks Tack

Pedal will go solid.

I think the release fork has had it.  :'(

Not seen one shear by there. Least it not major and you can fit a heavy duty one now.

It seemed to have some sort of graphite grease on. Must have turned into carborundum paste with all the clutch dust!
