Clutch flexihose problem - Check yours!

I have ordered the replacement flexi and hardline assy from Ben. £50ish for the right part is a no brainer IMO...

that 034 hose won't work on the 6spd it will get in the way of the linkage

The OEM hose is a stainless braid under the rubber sheath, its a very good qualty part actually.

Sounds good

Fit and forget.

I forgot to update this. A new flexi hose arrived courtesy of Ben (S2Avant) last Tuesday and was fitted in approx 2 hours that evening. Refitting was fairly easy, just two fittings, then a pressure bleed. The first bleed was unsuccessful as I had left the clutch pedal on the floor so only have the master cylinder had fluid in it. Pulled pedal back up to the floor and bled with approximately 3/4 of a pint of new fluid, probably a little over kill but I no now longer have to worry about whether my clutch pedal is going to go to the floor when I get in the car.

Clutch is now light and progressive with a smooth action.

Shame now that one of my HID ballasts seems to have gone intermittent...

My S2 is on the road again for the summer.
