Hi all
I am hoping for some advice, but feel like a bit of a plonker asking really. Having recently just passed my driving test I have never been in this position before.
I had a problem with the gearbox/clutch on my car. when the clutch is pressed my car makes a clicking/tapping/rattling noise. I took it to a local clutch 'expert' who advise me it is definitely not the clutch. I took it to a garage that was recommended to me, who had a quick look over and advise me it 'sounds like the gearbox' - so he orders me a second hand one in.
my question: if it is not the gearbox, and the sound persists where do I stand? I could be spending around £300 on something that is not broken.
I don't want to be an idiot about it, however I did go to him for advice and he suggested that. Or is it the case with garages that suggestions are made in good faith?
