I am getting more than worried reading the above.

I've just spent a small fortune on my ZT to get it through it's MOT test,
suspension work, ALL new brake pipes and flexi brake hoses, plus all the other stuff I've done myself since I've bought the car, and the clutch I need to get done ASAP as the clutch pedal feels as heavy as the brake pedal, and now it seems to have dropped 1/4 of an inch before it does anything.

Surely a clutch should be able to be replaced and have some longevity in it?
I was speaking to a bloke just last week ( no-one off here ) who had a 75 -T , his also a diesel, he had had the car a while, the clutch had suddenly given way ( the concentric slave ) and the cost of getting it replaced with the other items that it needed for the MOT just was't worth it for him.

Is it down to the quality of LUK clutches?
