Clutch has finally gone after 140,000 miles and 16 years
It's been screetching the past few days, but I just thought it was a loose belt.
HID Ballast also knackered so only got one headlight at the moment.
On the plus side, Amp and sub are now wired up.

You got another yet??? Or were you just waiting for it to go. Seeing how long I could get away with it for, was looking at getting a sport clutch, but at double the price of a standard and not much more power than standard, theres no point. THE CURSE OF CAR OF THE YEAR I TELL YOU

Ok, after spending over £100 on new clutch parts, I found out today that the car wouldnt start.
Found out that its not my clutch that has gone, but merely the nuts on the throttle body on the inlet manifold had untightned and the inlet had come loose from the manifold.
Least I have a new clutch to change when the weather is a bit warmer.
Headlight is now fixed after buying a new ballast

bunny hopping when it actually got going.
Screetching noise went away as I came off the throttle

Should have asked moi when I had the Micra. Crappy Clutch ,means you couldnt put the power down. Doesnt effect the engine in "stalling" etc, as a crap clutch wouldnt provide enough bite to stall...
Least you know what it is though bud....
£100 for clutch parts !!!!
Did you try Unipart ???
