P15UL T Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 hi peeps i recently bought sarnies zed off him, nice car but the paint is a bit crappy upon closer inspection will probably get it resprayed. anyway i smelt a burning smell coming back from the chinese tonight and think it may be the clutch,i waited till it went away and took the car up the drive in first gear having to hold the car on the bite a few times being carful not to hit the mirrors of the walls and the smell came back. surley the clutch cant be knacked after 30000 miles anyone had theres replaced under warrenty or know how much this would cost to have replaced if that is was it is. i would be grateful for any help cheers Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 some clutches have failed even earlier mate. now the clutch has been known to smell after slipping it too much, mine used to smell until about 10k miiles ago (now 27k) not it does only if I abuse it (which of course I don't mr Nissan, even if it's not an item included in the warranty ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnie Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 it might be worth having a word with sarnie when he get's back of his hols I´m still here guys, stalking you from Menorca! To be fair the clutch never gave me any jib apart from being quite stiff, it had its service in feb and nothing was mentioned. Toodle pip!
