thats awesome mate, good luck with it, is it a straightforward job?

Steves Cleenz 10-08-07 07:01 PM

dont know, never done a clutch on a 180 before, but the best thing is my mate is a mechanic and we are using the ramp at his work to do the job so it will make a difference not to be lying on my back with the car on little ramps doing it LOL, but it does look pretty straight forward job we reckon its gonna take us less than 3hrs to do it, just thought i could take my camera and and use the pics for the "How to" section LOL

sduk 10-08-07 07:03 PM

excellent idea! good effort and good luck! :D

there not a bad job to do, can be a bit fiddely but nothing to difficult, i'd say you will want about 4 hours to do one

ERM!!!!!!!!!!! Excuse me for being thick!!!!!!!!!!

Castrol oil...........4.5 litres and not 5 litres?!?!?! I thought it always came in 5 litre cans...........in which case.........a litre extra free is actually a bit of a con!

Good news on getting ya car sorted though matey.

Yes Jim, it is a con, no different to Mobil 1, that is 4 litres IIRC.

Steves Cleenz 10-08-07 08:15 PM

it is a con as most cars have 5 litres, but wasnt fussed as i got the oil from focus do it all, as our branch is closing down so it was in the sale for £16 LOL
