My fairly new (dec'11) 110usw is being picked up tomorrow and taken back to Shukers, Shrewsbury.
It won't go into any gear!! The only chance of moving it is whilst engine switched off, put into gear, then start engine, with clutch pedal down. Boy did I get some ribbing from the chaps on the shoot yesterday, where it chose to fail! W8 http://www.cheshireoakstructures.co.uk |

Sorry for you but make sure they explain exactly what was wrong (all info is useful).
Good luck Matt Tell someone you love them today because life is short. But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing... |

Did type out a serious answer but it's too "Saddo" Lets just say she is kept in a constant glistening state and it's catching, I notice even the OCD neighbour is detailing the engine bays on his two new Audi's - sad git!
Keep us posted Wombat |

Apparently the clutch plate had a piece break off.
New clutch ordered and delivered to Shukers today. They rang late morning to say it would be ready this afternoon. So I am on my way early tomorrow to pick it up. Currently got a LR rescue car, a Disco 4 HSE sdv6 ........luxury, goes like the what's it's for a large vehicle. Impressed with service so far! W8 http://www.cheshireoakstructures.co.uk |

W8 There was a defender down the lane past my place last week, shooting in the fields (well the defender was not shooting!) I'm off A56.
Mine is May 10 no clutch issues to date. Richard 130 Puma HCPU with an Artica 240LR Demountable Camper |
