scottyglanza Posted April 7, 2011 Author Posted April 7, 2011 spoke to tuning developments today and they think it could be a release bearing that has collapsed but obv the clutch could be worn aswel so they have reccomened a new clutch but if the clutch is in decent condition just to replace the relase bearing Quote
