We are setting off for a 3 week trip around France next week so thought it best to get our Belle looked over to reduce the chances of a breakdown (and the resulting wrath of the missus). Good job I did too!
I had noticed a little bit of an issue with the clutch and some noise when the clutch pedal was pressed but just put it down to a worn release bearing. Turns out that the clutch had broken apart and had worn down the input shaft guide almost to nothing. A few more miles and it would have made an absolute mess of the gearbox and engine.
Thank goodness I got it checked out. So my words of advice, if you suspect there is something wrong with your bus....
...there probably is. Get it checked out!
