    Mum got a 2016 Paceman in March after downgrading from a Freelander 2.

    She was leaving mine last night, and I was following her back to get things out the garage at parents house ...........turns out her clutch has gone! Metallic burning smell, and no gear selection at all.

    Poor car.



    Anyway, any recommendations of anywhere to fix/replace a clutch in Glasgow, Stirling, Falkirk areas?


    Cheers

    That’s a bit of a bummer. I highly recommend Douglas and his team at B&M Centre e in Yorker, Glasgow. They are site sponsors and have looked after loads of members cars and always carry out top notch work.

    Turns out not only has the clutch basically disintegrated, but due to the excessive heat at the time, the flywheel is cracked in 2 places!
