That was the hardest bit, especially cos this was the 3rd cable, and the remants of the first were left in the space down there, so when that came out i thought i'd got it all, but didnt realise until I'd been fishing about for 20 minutes that the one i broke was blocking the path of the new cable......grrr.

nice one

my clutch cable snapped yesturday at 5.00pm, thought **** aint gonna be able to make the track day, fook fook fook...

drive to reno, ring gsf on route, no stock, reno no stock... so went and tried partco, got there just as they was closing, they had one! bingo! :D and its a much better fit than my old reno cable, and was so much easier to push thru the bulkhead aswell.... wonder how it will stand up though.

Have been reliably informed that snapped cable is a first sign of worn clutch. You get used to a heavy clutch so don't realise it but a renault specialist noticed mine was heavier than normal and so got local mechanic to change clutch and cable as was cheaper.

So if you have just snapped a cable. Think about a new clutch or carry a spare cable for when it happens next time.
