I'll try and keep this brief. Was driving to work this morning when there was a twang/pop under my foot and suddenly I had no clutch! I've called the company who fitted the clutch (clutch was fitted last year and has a 2 year warranty) and they have said it could be either clutch cable or pedal...

Very much appreciated John :) I did ask about gear box oil and he said that the gearbox oil doesn't need to be replaced as it lasts the life of the gearbox so I guess that answers that question as to whether he replaced it :x he couldn't have been any more disinterested in the problem! Think I...

Back again :roll: well I took my car back to the clutch fitter today, I told him the clutch pedal was sticky and the gears had also become sticky and that there was a noise coming from the clutch pedal as when you put your foot on the clutch it stops when you take it off it starts again. He got...

Hi, I have a 1.4 litre 97 polo 98500 miles on the clock, which has suddenly developed sticky gears. It has always been fine until 2 days ago and now I am finding it difficult to get it into gear without a bit of a rough hand! I'm not sure if this is a gearbox issue (oil?) or a clutch issue but...
