blocko_23 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hi ive finally got a legacy... Picking up a b4 twin turbo saloon end of the month. Only problems ive been told with the car are the clutch has started to slip in auto but when in triptonic its fine.. is it just a simple clutch change and be done with it or is it something more serious?

GeoffLeggy Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Welcome! Glad to see another TT owner or potential owner here. It will be the torque converter if its an auto. I would be cautious. The first thing to check is the fluid level. Has the car been tuned to more than standard BHP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blocko_23 Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Its standard bhp.. so i should avoid it then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffLeggy Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Well depends on if your happy to tackle the potential issue and how much your paying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blocko_23 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Share Posted March 16, 2016 Paying nothing doing a swap for my mondeo v6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffLeggy Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Fair enough. What reg is the Mondeo? Bear in mind a decent condition Leggy should fetch around £2.5-3k, mileage dependant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blocko_23 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Share Posted March 16, 2016 2002 02 reg mondeo slighty modded its worth about £1300 with all the mods... straight swap for legacy tt only problems are the slippy cutch in automode has a missfire.

GeoffLeggy Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 You might get lucky you might not, I think its that simple. Best case is new fluid and plugs. Worst case is, well......... If your not afraid about doing the potential work then its probably a fair swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
