Title: clutch adjuster
Post by: pal1 on 14 October 2003, 10:25

just brought a 16v but the clutch pedal is high if you push the pedal right down it doesnt change properly but half way down it does.
 the problem is its a self adjusting cable and it cant be adjusting right its had a new clutch so it cant be that is there any thing i can do or is it just one of those things you cant change  ???

When I fitted a new clutch on my car I also fitted a new cable and it cured the problem you describe. I fitted an automatic adjusting one and it was fine but took ages for it to bed in, it was between clicks for a while.
