Thanks for the tips fellas .. how would i check the driveshaft or cv joint? Saying that I'm probably gona take it to another couple of garages for them to give me a second opinion so will ask them to check these bits over too ... I was thinking if it is the diff. driveshaft / cv joint will it cause any other major issues if i continue to drive the car? |

I'm guessing that would be just labour Dave. Clutch and gearbox would need to be paid for on top i reckon. ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!! You'll need to throw money at the car. Not on parts. Just stand near your car and throw loose change at it, I find this increases performance for a short period of time |

When I used to do them, I used to charge £200 labour for new clutch, lightened flywheel and clutch cable fitting.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Fitting of a replacement box shouldn't really be any extra as it has to come out anyway Approx 4 hours labour plus gear oil and seals if required |
