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

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!
