Clutch!

Slight issue yesterday (Sunday), Driving along the North Circular near to Enfield, pull over into the slip road to exit onto the A10 and come to a stop at the lights, clutch down change gear, handbrake.   All as per usual.

An ok day, bit cloudy, not too much traffic and not one instance of being cut up – as per usual driving in London!

Then… as I tried to lift off as the lights changed it lets me select gear, but there is no power going to the wheels – as if in Neutral. Bugger, keep trying, turn off engine give it a few minutes, try again, nothing. Hazards blazing and fortunately was on the left of 3 exit lanes so although I was blocking it wasn’t too bad. Quick call to the RAC and they arrived in about 45 minutes. He knew immediately it was the clutch causing the problem, rolled the car back into a nearby bus stop so he could hook it up to the tow system. Collecting the car tomorrow (Tuesday) so fingers crossed we will be back in business!

Thanks to the RAC for the tow on a Sunday to a nearby Garage for repair!

Don’t forget to DONATE – Now the car keeps breaking, We need the money more than ever!
