Clutch Advice

RizzleKicks · Jan 22, 2019

Hey Folks ,

Looking for advice , own a 2004 FL 1 Diesel from new & just covered 85,000 miles with FSH. Noticed a few weeks ago when I am changing gear the pedal does come back up but occasionally I have to put my foot under the pedal to hear it click I would say about 0.5CM to bring it back to normal sitting position.

Put it to the local garage and without taking it for a run said the clutch is starting to wear, never towed or been off road with it.

I have no Clutch Fluid loss and not sure what to do or replace first.

Got a quote from the local Stealers on Genuine parts etc see below .

Flywheel - £749.59

Flywheel Bolts - £17.68

Clutch Kit - £199.35

Clutch Bolts - £9.60

Slave Cylinder - £148.92

Master Cylinder - £133.24

Labour - £900.00

Plus 20 % Vat

Nearly the price of a FL 1

.

Would appreciate any advice as not wanting to get rid of the old deer either.

Regards,

RizzleKicks

They're pulling your pants down.
They've quoted you for just about everything in the clutch system. Not everything will be broken. It may be something as simple as a return spring on the pedal.
You could do with having your post in the Freelander section of the forum. That way members with more experience of Freelander issues will see your post. I'm surprised @Hippo hasn't seen this post yet!

Get yerself over to the Freelander forum and ask fer elp. Lots of things can go wrong with a clutch.

Main dealers sell good parts but they're eggspensive. They should give yer 10% oft due to yer Freelander's age and discount ont labour rate anorl... If yer got an allegiance member card.

Find yerself a local garage who has worked ont Freelander's.
