My clutch is beginning to slip, so needs replacing. However, the pedal felt horrible before this. Very stiff, especially on the way up. What else should I look at to improve the pedal feel? Clutch cable? I also seem to remember something about some bushes on the clutch linkage? Is there anything else I should look at? Cheers |

New clutch cable and clutch fork bushes should improve things |

No need to 'pack' them as such but smearing some on them is a very good idea.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

I should add that the grease will attract and absorb dirt, making the bush wear a lot faster than standard and creating a poor clutch feel.________________________________________ 205 GTIXsara HDI |

I still say a small smear of grease, it's always worked for me.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
