Well that was a fun drive home

[Niall]

So went to do some training tonight. Driving out of the car park and grants gone one way, I went the other. 30 seconds later I get a phone call

"can you come and meet me? I think I've f*cked it"
So drive round the corner and before I see him I can smell burnt gearbox oil.....pull over and it's f*cked! Open the bonnet and there's gearbox oil over the front of the box. Take the cover off and the clutch cover is covered in oil along with a nice pile of small bits of metal.






Only 6 miles from his house so I said I'd follow him home..if it gave up completely, I would of used my RAC cover. For the majority of the drive there was smoke coming from the wheel arches and I now feel sick from the smell of burnt box oil.
So just getting round the corner from grants, turn right and I get a nice loud grinding noise and no power steering.
Finally make it to grants and get his car parked up. Well that wasn't too bad!
On my way home, go round a roundabout on the bypass and backend starts to slip out. The roads are wet but I can go round that corner much quicker in the wet! Pull over and I have no power steering at all. Get out and there's a nice spill of power steering fluid around most of the roundabout. Have a look under the car and the ram ha gone pop.
