My daughter has put her aging Toyota Corolla (V reg, 1.3) in for an MOT and the man at the garage who she trusts (possibly wrongly) has told her that her clutch in going to fail soon and should be replaced.
Now I'm puzzled at why he looking at the clutch when the car's in for an MOT and how he can prognosticate on it's future lifespan.
Is it possible (and easy) to see how much friction material there is left in this car? Is he pulling a fast one or just trying to save her from a future breakdown?
Repairs including new clutch are gonna be £500+ which is probably uneconomic given the age of the car.
Seems a bit rummy to me...
