anyone on here give me a rough estimate on how much the following will cost me
fit and supply disk and pads all round
fit and supply passenger side drive shaft
fit and supply hand break cable
also instead of doing another thread, anyone know what the following are?
slight klunk/ knock when changing gear
a wurring/ ticking noise coming from the bonnet
cheers :y:

'Wurring' noise could be the Clutch release bearing or the waterpump.
Both cheap parts, however both time consuming, the clutch bearing more so.
-Disks and pads all round, Maybe £120 supplied and fitted.
-Passenger side shaft, £100 supplied and fitted, as you'll need new gearbox oil too.
-Hand brake cable is an easier one to do, £40 maybe supplied and fitted.

The thing with a 'rubber ball' that bolts to the bulkhead? that the linkages are attached to?
Mine clunked because that was worn to hell and almost a cube Lol

gearbox mount would clunk as clutch came up when changing gear, the rubber ball would do it as you shifted the stick

iv tryed this out and i can change gear and take my foot off the clutch then its when i put my foot on the accelerator, it does it. It also does it when i take my foot off the accelerator and then rev it in gear? so god knows why i said its when changing gear.
