Recently noises started from my gearbox end, so took it apart to what the problem was. As suspected was release bearing, rather goosed! haha

So after a weekend of careful take my time work, its now sorted with a new clutch kit. Also whilst at it though id treat her to a new cam belt kit and water pump.

Now shes running sweet :-) Thought i'd post a pic of the bearing up.

release bearing does look very buggered !!

Good work on doing it yourself!! Saved a lot of money on labour there !!

Cheers mate, yes I dont trust garages so rather do it myself and know it will get done properly. Plus as you say, save mega bucks. :-)

That's the main reason I started doing bits on my car myself, so I knew exactly what was done and that things were torqued back up properly.
