Cracked Peddle Box

[barneybeardsall]

Hi Guys,
I have just been out in the missus's car, to find a annoying loud crack on releasing the clutch peddle... on further investigation I have found a crack on the peddle box...

Anybody have any instructions on how to remove this crappy item to have it re-welded.

its connected to the cylinder
on mine i had to get new cylinder and "white box" fitted, also needed clutch pedal welding (mine shattered into tiny little pieces though,)

doesnt take long, i dropped mine off this morning and picked it up at dinner (AA man bodged some jublees together so it was kinda drivable)

theirs a clutch pedal guide at the top of this section mate

it is a long and lwnghty process, because the steering colmn goes through the peddle box you have to remove that first then you can disconect the prddles and then start work, just had mine done and the laboour and parts olus the clutch cable came to £590. it is a common problem on these cars and seat are not admitting the fault is down to design fault.

sorry mate that was 490 for new clutch cable and the new peddle box, it was mostly labour, since you have to take out the steering columb

You can do it without removing the steering column... I removed the one on mine within 2hours.... then had it welded and replaced the broken clips on the pedals along with some new shaft bearings...and refitted... took another hour or so to refit with some effing and bliming.... to get the brake pedal re-connected.

I think total cost came to no-more than £10
