clutch for T5 94-95
Hello
a newbie here seeking advice please My 850 T5 has started to slip when speed is applied yet drags car fine in 1st and stalls in 2nd & 3rd. is it a case of clutch going or another poss cause. it soon if nursed gets to speed and revs don't fly around just go up by about 500 whilst slipping. I drive it very careful (have to with squirt at the price it is) and average 30-32mpg around the streets and around 33+ on M-way. only ever get to speed gently rather than heavy foot etc. even towing the 20ft caravan I get 21-23+ MPG. If it is a case of clutch gone whats the need to fit a T5 replacement with its age and my driving if a std clutch can fit. and cost a lot less. and finally does it have to be a T5 replacement clutch or will another fit. & save quite an amount ? as its not going to be here for another 10years obviously. I know its not a quick job to replace but I have a workshop and Pit here so not a case of laying on the drive struggling etc. its done/shows 139K Kms on odometer. yet computer works on Miles is that very unusual ? should I buy a clutch first or take old one off and inspect for grease/contamination/poss repair. etc ??? thanks for any advice Last edited by dmans; May 17th, 2013 at 10:13.
