The tow truck driver put it into neutral. Was in third I think. I didn't think this would be potentially damaging?
Except this went from being absolutely fine to having no clutch at all in the space of around 30 seconds.I once had a bad slave cylinder in my 190E, with symptoms close to what you describe. Shifting wasn't too bad, once you got the revmatching down. Starting was another matter.
I have learnt that the hard way. I had a membership for the NRMA (like AAA or RAC or whatever) for the Renault, and I naively thought it would cover any car I owned - i.e. it's my membership, not the car's membership.Man, if you are a banger driver, the most important thing to have is towing insurance! It's one of the main rules!
- i.e. it's my membership, not the car's membership.
Look into RACV's NSW counterpart. My membership will cover any car I'm in, plus I can nominate another car. So I list my GF's Volvo (in the unlikely event) and get tows for whatever car I happen to be a passenger in.
Wanna bet that the GDPO knew about this issue?
But where is Spectre to complain about the fact the clutch parts are easily accessible in the front of the engine due to the backwards configuration?
Funnily enough, it's one of the first things I thought of. "Well, at least my engine is backwards" :lol:
