This still the SRi turbo? I think they're ML5Ts like the 2.1 % V6, with the sealed system hydraulic clutch. Pug says £240 so I think you'd be well advised to BITE THEIR HAND OFF!

Actually, I was sure they'd gone NFP a long while back. Back by popular demand?

Edit: Nah, it's the V6 one that's NFP :(

yh is an sri turbo.
worried now as my thrust bearing was going as car was squeeling etc, on way back from going to the garage that was shut, i had a head on crash in my lane in the snow/ice, not very fast but was a fair bump, couldnt see any damage, but when i got back in the car the pedal was to the floor and the clutch no longer worked, this usually happens if you keep driving the car while the bearings going but i dunno why it went after the bump? should i be worried or is a bump all it needs to kill it? unless the bump killed the master cylinder.

Uh it sounds like the clutch has failed, not the hydraulics... Not a particularly quick, easy, pleasant or cheap (even if you're doing it yourself) job
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
