Thanks for all the responses. I couldn't take the car back to them for a week or so because I was busy, but (to my utter amazement) they agreed on the spot to repair all the damage and I got the car back today. God knows what the future will bring since they messed up putting the driveshaft back on initially, but in their defence they didn't even try to argue it wasn't their fault. They jsut took it back and fixed it. Maybe those good garage schemes they're part of aren't a load of *******

Hi all, I had my clutch replaced at Mr. Clutch 2 months ago, and a few nights ago there was an almighty bang/clunk and my passenger side driveshaft had come off. Working with just a light in pitch black, I thought I could just replace the bolts. But on closer inspection, there is a big hole in the gear box near where the loose drive shaft would've been flailing around. And 3 of the 6 bolts which hold the driveshaft to the transmission are very bent. Clearly not been put on right. Anyone got any idea where I stand legally? Mr Clutch apparently guarantee "all parts and labour", and I kept to warranty inspections (which basically involves some bloke driving your car round the corner). But I've got a nasty feeling this might be the end for my beloved Fabia

Thanks coskev. Much obliged

Hi I'm new here but this topic is kind of related. Drive shaft bolts came loose somehow and started.. ahem. urinating gearbox fluid everywhere. Got the bolts back in, but how the hell do I refill the transmission fluid? I know it's empty because it dongs like a bell every time I accidentally hit it with with the wrench
