850 1995 CLUTCH LIGHT ALWAYS ON

Post by 9ja »

High guys i got a used 850 1995 (manual transmision)100k milage, and all these;
1.The clutch light came on and I changed the clutch disc, clutch pot and plate as recomended by my mechanic the light goes off after the changes but comes on and stays after a day. What do I do?
2. There is a rattling rear end noise from both the left and right side when I drive. What is the cause and how can it be fixed?
3.the ABS light came on and I changed the break pads then it went off 2 months ago and now it is on again.
3. The SRS came on a week ago.
Can somebody give me a hand? My mechanic has asked for manual and I dont have it, can any one help with the relevant info and PDF that can address any of these problems?

1. How's the clutch fluid level?

2. Could be a loose suspension component or bad hubs, etc. You really need to take the wheels off and inspect it.

3. Could be a sensor or maybe your control unit is going out.

4. Your SRS might not work if you get in an accident.

Have you pulled any OBD codes yet? That would help a lot. It's kind of hard to diagnose with such limited info and no access to the car.
