Hi everybody,
I am back here again looking for more advice.
The problem now is with the wife's 2001 ford focus 1.8 zetec estate. Just got a phone call from her and from what she said the clutch is slipping, when she presses the accelerator the engine revs increase faster than the car accelerates.(From this description I would be inclined to agree but haven't driven it myself so am not 100% sure.)
Can someone please tell me how to bleed the clutch (Just in case its some air in the system, front discs done 3 weeks ago) on this car as I don't really want to fork out for a new clutch this close to Christmas. And also what clutch is fitted to it.

Thanks in advance to everyone
and Happy Christmas

Sounds like a slipping clutch to me. And she needs to be really really gentle with the acceleration, or it will leave her stranded.

If the clutch is gone its gone, it'll have to be a new one.
at least with a job like this it's easy to shop around for a good price on the work.

Clutch changed and problem solved.
Thanks for all the advice
