He pushed the pedal down, and the (not sure what its called) arm moved that you can see at the top, It doesnt have the springey feel it usualy does as said, But seeing as it moves im guessing its not that, Anything else i can check.
Or feelings i can check for?
Revs are quite high yeah, Car moves but high biting point, Doesnt stall in reverse which he says should happen, Looked at that gear selector under the car and it seems fine.
If it was the drive shaft wouldnt i just have trouble moving it? Ive got a mate with a corsa whos driveshaft popped out and it just didnt move, The clutch felt normal though, And we couldnt get the drive shaft back in..
Yeah from having the hubs moving about and then the impact i suppose...
Live close to a dealers so walked down and got a mechnic to pop in on a test drive he was doing.
He felt the clutch, Moved the car and played with the cables and said it does feel like the clutch has gone and its just unlucky that the impact has finished it off?
The pedal has lack of a...
I dont think i can have done anything to the car when lowering but a possibility because its a bit lower and stiffer suspension going over the pot hole had damaged somthing.
Im hoping the clutch is ok.
Any cables i can check? When pushing the clutch down the cable moves (the arm just below...
I lowered my car yesterday, Could something ive done effected the clutch? I know the drive shafts can pop out lowering but once its all back is there any danger of that happening? Its moving so im guessing its not that.
I feel something has failed or dislodged, The clutch pedal was hard before...
^ This is what im thinking mate, If it was fine before.. Either the impact had done something to the springs (can someone explain this to me? the RAC bloke said the impact may have expanded or knocked the springs out? I know what they look like on a clutch just dont understand the gone wrong...
Was a fresh install, Fresh build. Sorted the folder problem which im pleased with.
Really not sure about the IE problem, Just after a few hours of computering, The tabs start taking a few seconds to close.
I can put it in all gears easily, Its just getting the biting thats hard, Clutch pedal doesnt have that normal feel to it.
It went as soon as i went over the pot hole.
Im hopeing it could be a cable or something easy, But i think its the clutch, Im not a mechanic so i dont know, But it...
Cheers to james.f for the guide! Should post it up in the guides section if you havent already mate.
Looks a big job, Im going to ring some garages tomorrow for quotes.
Nope it didnt smell, I think its the impact thats killed the clutch not wear, Is it possible it might just need putting...
I havent driven it fast enough for it to register i dont think, havent looked.
It moves but the clutch bite point is quite high.
Im considering doing it myself, Cheers to james.f for offering to knock up a guide.
All help appreciated keep it coming
Cheers for the replys, The roundabout was clear so i went straight over it at about 15-20. didnt feel that hard but i lost the clutch.
Bloke said driveshaft out, Oil out... as a basic guide ha ! i get what me means though, Any guides nocking about?
Yeah im good with a spanner, But i really...
Lowered my car yesterday, Been enjoying the lower looks and nicer rider on eibach, Went onto a roundabout tonight and straight through a pot hole, Clutch has gone.
RAC towed me home and told me it feels like the clutch has gone,
The car bits loosely so to speak and does move but its hard...
I figured it out now from someone simular who was having a problem, Just need to right click> properties the folder, And optomise it for documents, Pictures setting is what was making it lag.
Still cant fix the ie problem, Just restarted this minuite to stop ie lagging at the end of a day.
Ive tried Firefox before and ended up back on IE, God knows why its s**t im just used to it, If its IE and theres nothing i can do about it then yeah i might switch to firefox i suppose.
Been running my new set up windows 7 with an i5 750 and 4gb of ram.
All well,
But opening my picture folder; Instead of it all opening straight away it loads in stages and its very anoying. Hard to describe, if i click on one thumbnail others are loading so i end up clicking the wrong...
I got 3 door dings from drivers door, 1 from drivers rear quater and a orange size (what looked like a ball dent) from the boot lid removed for £110.
Just a case of ringing local dent removers, Or sending clear pics to local-ish online.
Done your pass plus? Get it done if your still in a year of passing.. (Also does anyone know is it still a year limit to get it done after you pass? Wish i had)
Look in The Boosh'es thread for insurers list and get phoning up.
Really the only thing that will make it come down is age...
Coming a long nicely mate, Recessed exhaust goes nicely with the sport rear...
Cup spoiler or colour coded as it is would look better, I can relate with the funds part, Holds me back all the time.
