Well today was a complete waste of time and couldn't of gone any worse unless I set fire to every thing got to muddy bottom around 10.30 payed £35 for me and my brother drove about 500 meters and my clutch went near new clutch with around 1000 miles on it exedy one to but it did rust together the other day after river driving maybe freeing it up ripped some off and chewed it up its like a spiders web of clutch fibres in there, any way that ended up with the worse thing for a Suzuki owner to deal with this,
No owner of a Suzuki should have to go through this after there clutch goes but at least I toke my trailer as I could just tow home with out messing around
On the way home my transit van was making a funny bearingy noise and was losing a lot of power and smoking a bit pulled In the next services to have a look and sounded like the turbo had to linp it back as its loads of hassle working out how to b=get a big transit and 4x4 on trailer home and we had about 5 miles to go so a 40mph limp with the van getting worse as we go me with clentched but cheeks hopping for the best, got back and stripped the turbo out to find this
bloody lucky no damage to the engine (I hope) seams ok
so to sum up the day
£35 pound down for pay and play,
£20 on fuel,
£56.99 on new exedy clutch
god nows how much for new turbo
and mud every were
I need a holiday after today
