Updating this topic. After I got quotes from various mechanics, the prices ranged between $2,700.00 upward. I wasn’t too sure if the truck had a solid or dual mass flywheel as the old owner wasn’t aware of the conversion had been done. I went with a local shop that quoted $2,700.00 one of the...

Yeah I agree. They need to remove and inspect it first. The prices was for a full replacement, but that may not need completing depending on the issue when they inspect the internals. I've emailed 5 other workshops asking for a quote of the work as it seems bloody unreasonable. I'll update the...

Yeah I thought the $ sounded steep. I've emailed 5 other mechanics in town asking for quotes, so I have some comparison. The whole job was priced at $920.00 NZD for labour. No slipping unde load. There's no other abnormal issues (the clutch itself feels fine etc). The only other issue is how...

Thanks again for all the suggestions. It went back to the mechanics. They couldn’t find any issues or replicate the creeping that I’d explained. They almost implied it was due to my driving technique (bullshit). I then went for another drive with one of the mechanics and the truck creeped...

I’ll pass this onto the mechanic tomorrow when I drop it back. As I say, I’m not a mechanic (wish I was now!) so any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks heaps.

Picture of my truck for reference.

Hello. I’m hoping to get some help and suggestions in regards to an issue I’ve been having with my truck that’s seeming very hard to isolate and fix. Please note: the issue is intermittent. It doesn’t occur every time. Usually about one in every three times. When I’m driving and start to slow...
