Aygo Clutch Problems

[PJ_northampton]

I took delivery of my new Aygo Ice three weeks ago replacing one I had had for the previous three years and before that a Yaris for three years both with no problems - all my cars have been from new. Yesterday (Saturday) when moving off from traffic lights, as I let the clutch out there was a bang and the car stalled - restarted it and the clutch control was really odd - the car jumped forward and stalled again - with difficulty I limped across the junction and managed to get home not far away with hazard lights on as at each clutch depression the car stalled. Rang the dealership and of course they had never heard of anything like this! perhaps they should read a few blogs on the internet!. Could I bring it in they said ? you are joking was my reply - anyway luckily with the new car came free AA cover - they were brilliant and within 30 minutes the car was collected - when I rang the Toyota AA line the operator said oh we've had quite a few of these - now waiting to see what happens on Monday morning when I get in touch with the dealership. Watch this space.

What was the outcome of this?

This topic was the member's one and only post - so I doubt we'll discover what the end result was.

At a guess I would say clutch release bearing...
