Morning all
My aunt has a 300tdi disco which has lost its clutch. The pedal goes to the floor and doesn't return. I have taken the gearbox off thinking it was the release arm fault but this appears to be fine with no hole. The master and slave cylinders have been changed and have made no difference.
My question is when the box is fitted to the engine the release arm still has 20-30mm of play before it engages the pressure plate. Is this right? I can't for the life of me see what is missing/damaged on the release bearing end.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated or if anyone has a diagram of the release bearing that might help. The one in the Haynes manual isn't very clear.
Thanks in advance
