Think you have put me off for life,about getting Trafic/vivaro Gavs.
Think i will stick with Expert/Dispatch when its time to upgrade mate.
Anyway sorry to hear that mate,If anyone deserves  some good luck, with vans,its you!

[Dave Willis]

Is it exactly the same problem you had on the Renault?

[Mike_G]

About a grand I reckon, just had a clutch done on my combo and that wasn't cheap did need a flywheel as well though

[AC Window Cleaning]

£1000 fitted i reckon,it comes as a set,concentric slave cylinder,clutch and dual mass flywheel.

[Scrimble]

didnt you have massive problems that nearly bankrupted you with a vivaro? and now you've bought another one??

[DaveG]

Looks like 07 platers are just as bad Gav!!

[woody1]

Did bring a chuckle and a tear to my eyes mate, all aside feel for you buddy

[colin purewater]

Wise choice of van

no m8 ad every thing else bar this
wiv the trafic
this is a slave cylinder for the clutch
which is in the worse place possible
buried inside the bell housing which means gearbox out
to get to it  would be stupid to not replace the clutch at this time
as all the labour is done doing a little part like the slave

That cost me a bit over £600 a couple of years ago.  That was 75,000 miles in.  Hopefully this one will do another 75,000 (will probably outlast the van).

Absolutely.  Clutch and slave done together.  If the clutch fails due to slip rather than slave, always do the slave too.
Funny story.  I took mine back afterwards because it sounded terrible.  Really loud.  Turned out the rubber bit by the pedal hadn't been replaced properly
