I have no idea  :sad1:

Total waste of time today. Times are tough at the moment and got shafted at the seat dealer €120 for 3 bottles of gear box oil and a coolant temp sensor.

Gears still stiff after a motorway blast to add to that the temp gauge still sits on a quarter.

Maybe flushing the brakes/clutch is the next thing i should try?

Yeah, you can flush the clutch, can't do any harm I guess. If the brakes are working well or if the fluid is less than 2 years old, I don't see the point on flushing them for now.

I've had the car 4 years and never changed the brake fluid so it could be worth doing.  :ashamed:

You can have it checked, some mechanics have a device that tests the fluid humidity.  :happy2:
