  • You may actually be right even though I thought I had checked this. Orca's overhang speeds are based on overhang percentage and not angle, I previously just looked at the number and assumed it was degrees 🤦‍♂️I will match the speeds for all overhang percentage ranges and see if that solves it 🤞

  • --- Thank you to everyone for replying. I'm pretty satisfied now that there is no trick to prevent grub installing unless an option is given during installation. Maybe in future, more distros will have the option 🤷‍♂️

  • I thought it was unlikely I'd managed to damage it even before you said that, now I'm sure 😄

    Thank you for your kind words. It's back on the road now and just as good, if not slightly better than before the clutch started slipping.

  • I will watch the fluid level or maybe even bleed it once more then, but it seems it's going to remain a mystery for now anyway.

    I really appreciate you going to the trouble to try and help with this. Thank you very much 😁

  • I left it overnight, and now the gear change is back to normal and I have no idea why 😭

    That's a really great way to find the problem, and if it starts happening again I will follow exactly that process 🙏

    It may not matter now, but for the sake of completing the picture:

    • I did move the gearbox but I also disconnected the linkage beforehand, carefully and gently too.
    • It's a bleedable (concentric) slave cylinder which I replaced with the clutch as it has an integrated release bearing. I've now been able to test the clutch properly and it feels excellent 👌

    If the problem comes back and I am able to find the cause, I will make sure to report back!

  • It's a 2013 Dacia sandero II - 1.5DCI

    Yes, I did. I didn't actually fully remove the transmission to avoid removing the front subframe. There was just enough space to separate the gearbox and engine and slot the new clutch assembly in.

    I think it sounds like a single selector fork too, but I can't think how I could've damaged it, since I don't think I have done anything that should affect the internals of the gearbox 😢

  • Thank you for replying 😁 In this car's case, the clutch was worn down to bare metal. Do you think maybe I could have bent the input shaft and this could cause it? I don't hear any unpleasant sounds of uneven rotation though, which I might expect from that (based on no experience at all 😜)

    Also what machine was it you mentioned?
