what he said
just stamp on it a few times to get the biting point were it sould be

While engines running?

Pedal goes down but only half way up.


RE: Clutch cable - samass - 29-08-2012

either or, makes no odds. probably puts less stress on your release bearing if its while not running, ten just ceck it as you go


RE: Clutch cable - Toms306 - 29-08-2012

Engine makes no difference, just stand on it a few times.....you have put it all back in right yeah? Smile


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

Right pedals sorted. But now my gear box is solid to get into gear while engines not running.


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

Start it up and something went crunch. The tension on clutch pedal has gone! Engine don't want to start. Sad

Could it be something to do with immobiliser?


RE: Clutch cable - Toms306 - 29-08-2012

Erm....how can you have broke anything just changing the cable? Undecided

Hang on, what was wrong with your cable? You sure it wasn't the clutch thats broken? And when you say won't start, what happens, does it crank or just nothing?


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

No idea. I'm going to come back to it tomorrow I think. Im tired warn out head ache and hungry! Sad. I knew I shouldn't of attempted this on my own.


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

Tbh I was told it was the cable. But now I think about it the cable wasn't snapped any where. My mates just rang saying he thinks it might be the thrush bearing.


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

First time in my whole life I ever attempt to fix my own car instead of my dad! Simple clutch cable change... Start with I jack my car up onto axle stands... Driveway decided to collasp and car was falling. Had to stop the car from falling shout my mum to fetch my neibours to help stable my car and lower it back down.
After a tow from my neibours landy I got it to my uncles garage which has a pit. With a lot of help from a friend I got the cable threaded through. After putting it back together came to start it and crunch. Now I think it could be the thrush bearing.
I'm very pissed off as you could tell.
Then I decide I can't be arse to make anything to eat so I ring up the take away I work at to order a pizza... I get told because I'm having Saturday off for car show... I've now lost my job!!!!!
But one bright side my pizza is costing me nothing Sad.


RE: Clutch cable - Toms306 - 29-08-2012

That's shit mate. Sad yeah I was gonna suggest the thrust bearing! However that won't stop you starting the engine afaik.


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

Question. Thrust bearing... Does it come in clutch kit or separate? Was thinking if it's the kit then might as well have the whole clutch changed.


RE: Clutch cable - Toms306 - 29-08-2012

Can buy it seperate.....but for all the hassle I'd do the whole kit while the box is off.


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

Yeah that's what I was thinking. So in that case it's going to be a garage job Sad.


RE: Clutch cable - Toms306 - 29-08-2012

Yes.....do not even attempt changing the clutch lol....really not a good idea! (see thread below this one lol)


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 29-08-2012

You and sam still not sort the hdi out?
And yeah think I might take it to a garage. Just need to find a decent clutch kit Smile

RE: Clutch cable - sweeney1987 - 30-08-2012

why cant you do a clutch change?
piece off piss!!

cables not hard either, i done my first one in half an hour n oly lost half a days pay over it


RE: Clutch cable - Toms306 - 30-08-2012

Yes a hdi clutch change is bloody difficult on a driveway without the correct tools and equipment! No, still not even got the box off yet Kent. Sad


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 30-08-2012

I very much doubt I'd be able to do it then. Looks like ringing garages after work. Sad.


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 30-08-2012

How much will it cost me for a decent clutch that will hold stage 2? And for a standard clutch what makes are good?
Also what's needed for a dturbo clutch?


Re: Clutch cable - aggyj17 - 30-08-2012

doing a clutch change is easy in a 306 took me and my mate a day to fit one and we had to wait for my clutch to turn up for a couple of hours.


Clutch cable - kentiiboii - 30-08-2012

Going down to the car soon. Because I think my engine had jamed so going to see if the car will roll. If not taking starter motor of see if something has got stuck between there and fly wheel.
Also check my clutch fork if that's loose I know it's thrust bearing. But think back to yesterday I was able to move the fork with my hand before I started the engine. So maybe that could be it.

Please comment your thoughts. I'm
No mechanic so I virtually have no idea always use my dad and don't trust mechanics incase I get ripped of so want to avoid if I can.
