Clutch Pedal Adjustment?

AmDaMan · 5 Mar 2006 at 14:43

Hey, got a new clutch fitted yesterday but the bloke said that the adjustment on the pedal isn't right and I would need a new one from Renault (clio 1.4 'm').

Basically there is a free bit of travel on the pedal before I feel any pressure. He said the rachets wern't catching straight away.

This makes it hard to change gear as i really have to push the pedal down to change gear and it bites straight away.

So can it be adjusted or do i need a new pedal?

Thanks.

Now I can't even get it in gear, is there a short term solution to fix it>?

hi, i've just made a washer (from a bike brake) thats about 1cm thick. I've used this to eliminate the slack but will look at a new cable or pedal ASAP.

Thanks. for the help!

Well it seems great at the moment (about 1cm free travel on the pedal, before it was about 6cm :eek:

)

It bites quite high up thoug now, is that the norm or not?
