Went to have clutch change went home…
Went to have clutch change at colchester branch (doc number 0551274454 on 16 march)went home found a massive oil leak next day contacted mobile mechanic to come and look to find the reverse switch broke off and gearbox oil seeping out. They actually left the part hidden underneath. Got it repaired by my mechanic as i was travelling that day it needed 2 litres if oil and new part. I contacted them they totally refused to believe they caused problem . Contacted customer service and for past 3 weeks failed to respond disgusted
