My 114i has just suffered a clutch release bearing failure at only 15K and 8 months old! Dealer are fitting a complete new clutch assembly which sadly will take approx 2 weeks to arrive from Germany. Dealer have been absolutely superb, diagnosed within the hour, hire car sorted, lunch voucher for nearby restaurant while we waited for hire car, a little toy for my son he came along. Top marks to Halliwell Jones, Southport, shame about my car tho. Even my old Alfa was a little more reliable
