Hi all,
The clutch failed on my Daewoo Nexia last week. It had been getting harder to get in to gear, until it had reached the point where I could tell that the clutch was not fully disengaging the gbox from the engine, and I could not select reverse whilst the engine was running.
I adjusted the cable which made the clutch work nicely again, and made a mental note to pick up a new clutch cable soon.
However, a few days later, as I went to change gear the clutch went, and the pedal dropped most of the way to the floor. Pressing the pedal had no effect at all.
I assumed that the cable had snapped, but on closer insepection the cable is fine - moving the clutch arm causes the pedal to go up and down, so it would appear that the problem is in the clutch itself.
I've been quoted £180 to fit a replacement clutch - does that sound reasonable? Also, from what I've described, does it sound likely that it will need a new clutch (I imagine so) or is there likely to be some easy fix?
Many thanks
David P
