Citreon Synergy Cluth peedal staying down!!!



Has had new clutch kit to cure this at the local Citreon dealer and charged £740 !!!



The vehicle is a 1999 year and TDI 1900cc



any ideas



thanks

At that price if it went wrong, I'd take the clutch out myself, and then ram it up the workshop manager's arse. French cars; don't you just love 'em?

Does the clutch engage at all if in gear and running if you lift the pedal up by hand? hard and iffy to do but worth a try. if so then i bet it will be the spring on the pedal that has gone. known problem from experience :)

That'd be right - then they can charge him another £40 for fixing *that* :O)

Sounds like the typical symptoms of a failed slave cylinder to me.

Sounds about right for a main dealer (for cost and results).

Next time go to a clutch specialist. Most clutch changes cost between £200 and £400.

Once you are out of warrantee there is no reason for going back to a main dealer except for a hard-to-get part.
