Got another couple of questions... firstly, it looks like I'll need a new clutch before too long. The pedal is very heavy, the biting point is quite low to the floor, and selecting reverse is very hard sometimes (I know that could be the linkage, but with the other symptoms, it's unlikely).
Question is, has anyone done a clutch change DIY? I hear its a nasty job... my local cheap mechanic refuses to do it! He says once was enough...
Anyone got any experience?
My other question is: what is the usual cause of booming when under load at low revs? I think that's what it's called... when you get a loud, deep vibration through the car body. I know all cars do it to some extent if you need a lower gear... this one seems to do it a lot though.
