Now lynx are at it...

Sounds reasonable enough, Hal... it obviously isn't a DMF... did you tell him you're a taximan, without mentioning that you drive a Prius!

He knows i'm a taximan...and drive a Prius....he changed the perished rubber injector hoses on my Citroen aswell,i wasn't comfortable doing them....he's an east euro chap....actually has an old Citroen Traction Avant in pieces in his warehouse.

Stuart is the boss, isn't he... well, he was last time I was there. The Eastern European lad does the work though... where'd we be without all dem immigrants?

The car was just about driveable...to the bottom of the hill where the garage is....i asked another mechanic i know(Irish guy) who's on the opposite side of the road,he had a look in his book(so did i)...Wed and Thurs were free...."can do it next Fri"....for €450!!

[Rat Catcher]

Still, at least he's Irish... it's the likes of you that has all them immigrants coming here undercutting our hard working, skilled tradesmen and grease monkeys... anall...

Her local is where ever is closest to the post office that dishes out the Childers allowance..
She is also getting single.mothers allowance because her sperm donor is in Jail.

I currantly have 300,000 on the clock .its a toyota avensis.the last car I had was a skoda superb,with which I had endless clutch trouble.I have since been told that skoda cars are notorious for the clutch going in them.also the DMF

[Rat Catcher]

You can rely on VAG clutches to go, alright... Most expensive repair on my MKII Octavia @ €600 and put two of 'em in the Triggers's Brush (MKI).

Just enjoy the new motor RC.

[Rat Catcher]

It's dirty now... the enjoyment phase is over, just another workhorse.

600 a pop seems cheap rat,did that include the DMF as well ?

[Rat Catcher]

Cheap is debatable but I guess it was a fair price, Stuart does look after his taximan clients. It did include the flywheel, you'd be mad to change one without the other IMO. I priced the parts online at the time and I think they were a little over 4 ton. Mrs. Catcher's non-DMF clutch was a little over 3 ton and the old MKI Octy (with DMF) which Stuart done twice was closer to 7 ton if memory serves, can't be precise as I don't have the service record for that motor on this computer.

Rang euroclutch this morning ,just out of curiosity you understand.quotes me 11hundred for clutch,and flywheel.believe it,or not it was by far the best quote I got.main dealer wanted 1600,and others 14/15

[Rat Catcher]

Seems steep... got mine done in Feb '15... price has nearly doubled in 4 years?
