Yes is probably the noise. Most clutch kits dont come with a spigot bearing. But it should have at least been inspected while the clutch was being changed. Then a call to yourself advising it needed changing

Lol £5 part max ! you should always replace it when you renew the clutch IMHO, same as you should change the rear main oil seal. Just makes good sense to replace the small inexpensive parts while the expensive to remove bits are off Flywheel skim wouldn't go a miss either

I just read your other thread as to which Mr C's you used Don't be too piss3d Graham at Mr Clutch is a nice guy, I am sure he'll sort it out for you Mistakes happen, but I appreciate it's stressful with all things automotive especially when it's outside your control.

Be positive, I am sure all is well

yes you are right here pal Graham didnt hesitate to take car back into workshop and try and sort the issue seems a top guy .Hes had it there all day and said all clutch was good but they have found a seized spigot bearing and i think they didnt have the part in stock so now he is saying car will be ready tomorrow and lets hope that the spigot bearing is the issue..which form all my research on here its looking that way. so yes lets stay positive and look forward to it being ready and running sweet tomorrow.Just a shame it wasnt done in the first place. thanks everyone for your comments and ill keep you posted on the result tomorrow.oh and 53 yes they have already skimmed the flywheel.
