Where did you get the clutch fitted and how much did it cost you ??

Scoop is right, if it is the rear crankshaft oil seal leaking onto the clutch then its not the clutch that is faulty therefore will not be covered by your warranty if you have one ?? It will be the rear crankshaft oil seal that was faulty and leaked oil onto the clutch therefore causing it to slip. Both the rear crankshaft oil seal and the clutch would have to be replaced and this would be chargable and not warranty work if its the oil seal leaking that has caused it to slip.

Sted, I have this conversation on a daily basis. They should at least look at it for you if nothing else....

People say to me "***** Will do it cheaper" I agree, but look what happens when things go wrong. At least with a reputable garage you know they will honour the warranty and even do the job right in the first place.

After all, do you really want your car fixing from the cheapest garage, this normally means the cheapest parts are used and that they employ cheap mechanics with very little experiance.

Its ofter getting the work done from someone you know and trust, even if it costs a little more...

Just my pennies worth thumbsup

I have got to second Scooby's thoughts. If you look after your car with quality parts and service it will pay dividens later on.
Lets say iv had my pros and cons and you know the amount of trouble iv had @ times - At least learn from me and even tho it may cost a little more your paying for QUALITY and thats what should matter.
