The shaft probably twisted in the arm. Try getting the pin in now - I imagine it's moved around when you wiggled. ________________________________________ ![]() |

Looks like it may have. Just got in from work with a view to get the arm off, but it won't budge, big lever bar under it and no movement at all, even with a shock from a hammer too ![]() |

no, very different, pokes out of the front of the box, pivots on a ball and is actuated by a hydraulic slave cylinder.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Hit too hard out of frustration and the bottom of the fork must've smashed through the bottom. Also that metal ring fell from somewhere... |

i've also just been out to see if my top arm comes off my 1.6 gti 205 box and it won't. likewise i smashed both top and bottom bushes out so it cleared the input shaft and came out the top so i have better access to getting the pin out. seized solid and i have about 1.5mm each side to work with. nice________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |

![]() Yes Rikky, I meant Batesy. ![]() Hopefully, now that you.ve got the arm off and you can fit new bushes etc you should be able to get it on fairly easily. ![]() ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone ![]() |

Boom, it seems to be on, went to test it before putting all bolts in etc and the cable has come off the pedal, can't see where it's gone either or how it goes back on :/ |

On the top of the clutch pedal is a hook that you slot the white rectangle onto.________________________________________ I'm Si btw![]() Night Blue VW Golf GTD Bianca LBSC Rallye - Track/Road Slag Project Thread Sparkling Silver Mini Cooper D - Super Dooper ![]() |

Oh yeah, it feels like it just sits in there, or is it meant to clip in with a bit of force? Pedal now operates arm with some resistance, although not the same as prior to starting |

no, just sits in there, when connected to the clutch it can't come off, unless it breaks.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
