    Clutch issue

    Hi all,
    I just jumped in the S6 to go home. Pressed clutch normal heavy 219.000 miles version. Then I felt a click through the pedal. Next press it's a lot lighter. Bled it and no different. If I start it in gear it sort of works but the clutch is dragging. Guessing plate has broken.
    joy.

    Managed to drive it home without stopping. Definitely has broken. Twenty five miles with lots of round a bouts. Saved dragging the wife and kids out to collect me.

      You saw the S6 clutch I did here a while back? Hopefully it's not that bad

        Remind me, Bad?? They aren't bad to change. Just not good timing. I have a Healey 3000 on the lift and a very full workshop.

          The pressure plate had broken up.
          Not difficult, just takes a while removing everything as I'm sure you know.

            I'm expecting that's what's happened. Just ordered a Sachs one off autodoc £165. Bargain! Was hoping the original one have lasted until new engine later this year.
