lubylou12 Â Â 10 #145 Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) Just an update, car fixed, the brake crunching sound and dragging feeling was due to the ABS ring having a snap in it, and fan belt needed tightening both sorted and car running great and a full check and brake pads perfect apparently...thanks for all your advice Edited November 4, 2016 by lubylou12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
nettie147 Â Â 10 #146 Posted September 23, 2016 Clutch on the car has gone & don't think it can be driven to a garage (limped it to kwickfit & apparently they don't do clutches!). Can anyone recommend a mobile mechanic or a garage could collect? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

blackydog   40 #148 Posted September 24, 2016 There's a place recommended on here, Clutch Clinic or similar at Neepsend. DON'T use it, made a complete mess of ours, ended up worse than when it went it in. He also has history on here for an earlier court trial which i wasn't aware of at the time.

bottletree   10 #150 Posted September 24, 2016 Don't go to car clinic, they are very expensive. I needed a clutch and dual mass flywheel replacing 3 years ago, Car clinic wanted to charge me £998, I went to DL Auto's at the bottom of Rutland Road, £385. They were cheapest out of 3 quotes.
