Just got my car back from Dunedin - clutch noise still there after a bled master cylinder, adjusted heat shield. Its going in for a new clutch in January under warranty!
Funny thing though, in 7500 miles it used 2 litres of oil but the dipstick was still showing just enough oil. Is that a lot? Also was told that as I only get between 21 and 24mpg that it needed servicing 1000 miles b4 recommended!
What a car, 7500 miles, been in 7 times for faults, two of them outstanding - clutch noise and stumble. I've given up on getting the rattles fixed. At least the trade in price was £15,900, only 3k depreciation in a year! Think i will be choosing another car in Feb/March as although the guys in service are a friendly bunch I dont want to be visiting them every other month! Time to sort out some test drives in Jan! A shame really as I really like the way the car drives and handles.
