Own a UK Focus 1.8TDDI, problems with a whinning noise, I thought was comingfrom the accerelator/vaccum seals ?, took it into Ford and under warranty they have said "just a quick note to advise you that your' car is ready. please advise uswhen you are coming to collect. the clutch kit and slave cylinder have been replaced. part numbers are 1116680-clutch kit & 1141581 -slave cylinder." What has been the problem? any ideas ?

It seems that they came to the conclusion that it was your clutch that was at fault and have completely replaced it. Odd that they replaced the slave cylinder too - unless this wasn't actuating properly and caused the problems with the clutch.....

Well obviously there was a problem with either the clutch release bearing (which is part of the slave cylinder on the mtx75 gearbox) or the clutch itself which was causing the whining.
