Hi Everyone

Hi all,

I have a focus st170 2002, i just had a clutchmasters stage 3 clutch fitted, and new slave cylinder, now i got gearbox oil dripping out the bell housing.

The guy from the garage is saying that it has happend to him 5 times with fords after fitting a new slave cylinder and that i am to make a claim against ford for a faulty part and labour so he can put it right. I did call ford parts to ask if it was a common problem as the garage are saying it is but ford said no it is not a common problem and that they dont sell that many of them.

Anyone else had this problem?

Thing is i got the parts from clutchmasters which are bassed in usa, so i dont have a leg to stand on with then do i? or could i still claim?.

Does anyone know why it would leak oil after new slave clyinder has been fitted. I did give him a new master clyinder too but he never fitted it and never said why he never.

Dont know what to do next, gave the garage £980 (have other bits done) now i got a leaking gearbox, a drive covered init, car back at garage.

Any advice welcomed please.

Thanks

Welcome to the family

Was it a private sale or bought from a trader?
