spoke to VW and they said no way should it be driven long distance (its 14 miles to garage).

cost of new flywheel £300 + labour
cost of recovery truck £13.44 + beer tippage for dropping me back home

you do the math  :huh:

anyway... it was virtually undriveable... its all sorted with brand new clutch. fitted in about 2 and a bit hours. Apparently the old one was COMPLETELY FUBAR

collecting tomoz  :cool:

result  :afro:    but it was slipping for quite a while  :rolleyes:

yes... but as toph said it only points to a knackered clutch anyway

here's to actually being able to do hill starts without revving the bollocks off it!  :grin:

service and new cambelt next week

currently -1 inner wheel arch liner as the last one disintegrated when it was removed (might have had something to do with a bollard  :lipsrsealed:)
also intercooler might have a crack in it.. ok for the moment but will undergo full inspection next week!
