Clutch repair in Croydon

The design of modern Mini clutches shows little sign of wear before it collapses. A heavy clutch pedal combined with the mileage of the Mini gives a good indication to whether the clutch needs replacing. Although mileage is a good indicator of clutch wear, we have replaced clutches on Minis with only 10,000 miles on the clock and some as high as 90,000 miles so the range can be extremely varied.

When it comes to replacing the clutch on your modern Mini the front end and chassis are removed. Whilst in this state we check the bushes on the chassis for wear as these parts are more accessible with the frame removed and will be cheaper to replace than once refitted. We also change the crank sensor O-ring, a source of oil leaking, which is not an expensive part and has plenty of access with the front removed.
