ok i went through some deep water yesturday (came upto the door handles)

and now i cant get the car into gear. the clutch pedle is soft and will not select gears.

Have a look in the clutch inspection hole below the dizzy. Dont know how to get water out if its full other than some sort of suction through this hole or partially splitting the engine/box

had a quick look, does not seem to have any water in it

where can i check the clutch fluid

Well if you went through it in the 1.3 its got a Cable Clutch Hav no idea About the Mark 4!

maybe coincidence but the clutch sounds like its dead anyway.

yea we had this yesterday mate, wouldnt worry about, my dad had this in the transit, but he left it over night and it was good as! usally just a bit of moisture within the clutch plate, not making contact with the flywheel, and slipping! i think they're is a fliud which can be used but not quite sure what name etc!

cheers for the replys.

i will see how it is tomorrow.

no still the same. i just dont now what to do

Try putting it into gear with the engine off,then starting the engine with it in gear and your foot on the clutch (this is the correct way to start all manual cars).

There is a breather hole in the top of the gearbox,but its tiny. And i cant see any reason for water in the box causing it to prevent engagement. Wont do it any good,mind.

got it sorted.

started it in gear.
