New Owner......
Hi all.
I have recently bought a Hijet 1.3 on a Y reg. It is the MPV version but I have removed the seats for my work.
It has not been without its problems, mainly niggley things. I bought the van about 3 weeks ago from an address 200 miles away, after driving a Merc estate it was an 'experience'.
Despite its niggles etc I love it! It always puts a smile on my face when I drive it. The 2 biggest problems are that it had a new clutch just before Christmas but it is slipping. I have tried adjusting it but it makes no difference. Secondly my silencer has just gone bang.
I intend to persevere but I reckon that it will be a bumpy journey

Re: New Owner......
What happened with the clutch job?
What it a full 3 piece kit - plate, bearing and cover?
Maybe you have a leaky crank oil seal.
Maybe the flywheel is knackard and should have been replaced.
Who did it? Yourself?

Hi.
The clutch was done before I bought the van. I have a receipt from the garage but it is a bit vague.
That said, the cost of the parts alone would indicate that it was a 3 piece kit.
I may give them a call for what its worth...

If you are a half handy kind of guy,
Taking the gearbox out to inspect the clutch is very easy on a Hijet.
