Ok jus a quick thread to check if there are two types of clutch for the spaxo:

one is 97 - 2000

other is 2000 - 2004

Is this true? cars in the garage been fixed and they said i ordered the wrong clutch!

Cars a "W" plate VTR

current bill for fixing = £392 with the new clutch ordered

You're paying for nearly £400 for a new clutch? OMG.

Yes, it's likey to be different, as it is with the 106s. MK2 use a slightly bigger clutch IIRC...

Na, im paying £145 for the clutch to be fitted, £105 for the new different clutch, new engine mount, new 4-2-1 downpipe and tidy up of general things in the engine bay really. plus VAT

EDIT: And mine is a MK2 im jus guessin it uses the clutch pre end of 2000

Ok little update, as you can clearly see by the date of this thread that i got my clutch replaced about a month ago.

How long after gettin it replaced should the clutch start slipping. When i mean slipping i mean really bad. As in, im in fifth gear on the motorway, go to overtake a car pissin about in the middle lane and just accelerate then go to pull out to overtake and my revs start to climb but the car doesnt change speed!

WTF!!! Not impressed, can i take my car back to the garage and get them to sort it cos they done a bodge job or do i have to buy a new clutch, AGAIN!?
