I'd never thought of that idea James, it is food for thought though, some sort of meet i'm thinking

I picked up Millie today from my indy after he had fitted a new clutch as the old one had started to slip

Bet that’s made an ever better drive too.
![]() Was it a Valeo? Or something else possibly? _\Hennessey|Venom| F5/___ ___\⭐️Lone|Star|State/___ ____\We|Will|Win/___ ____/🇬🇧🇺🇸\____ _//*⛽️🛢️⚙️🧰*\\_ |

It's so much better Steve and yes it was a Valeo fitted before as that's my go to as the clutch is like a modern car with the easyness of use and i have fitted the same again

I have been down that route last year with BeaTie, cost me close to 2k. I am not sure if i had a seal failure which caused the box to lose the oil. I recon that may have happened to Millie Thing is Clayton, these gearboxes now are not recon ready on the shelves now, as soon one comes in they get recon, then out. I was told the same thing by two different companies. Had the bearing let go? I think what saved mine from letting go was parking her up and getting it straight in. I think i could have got the price down better. Me and my dad could have changed it but again its getting the box away. I may look at getting mine re done by Ashcroft at some point, as i am still on the fence with this recon unit.

Many thanks to you all
![]() Millie is going very well and i still have to sort out a heavy duty recon gearbox for her as the gearbox in her at the moment is a standard one, then i can keep this one for a spare if needed again ![]() I've been a bit naughty with Millie's servicing as i get her serviced every 6,000 miles but with all the going on's with her, i worked it out that she had done around 15,000 miles ![]() ![]() After i have picked her up tomorrow, i can get back to the on going project for Millie ![]() 1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.
