Hi,

Im having issues getting my mini in gear. I think this is likely the clutch as its all the way to the floor when changing gear.

Any one know how much a new clucth will cost me to have fitted?

Thanks

Is it the clutch or the clutch hydraulics ? Is there lot of free play before you feel and pressure on the pedal, if the clutch hydraulics has air in due to a cylinder problem or a leak of clutch fluid you would have a pedal that drove just off the floor and trouble getting gears. Have you checked the level and looked for any leaks
