D turbo strange noise

[mangler]

What do you mean stiff? Like the pedal is hard to push? Lubed the pedal? I thought it was a new decent make pressure plate, doubt that would cause problems. Has it had time to bed in?

Yeah the pedal has become harder to push. I haven't lubed the pedal but at the start it feels ok but the last 2 3rds are pretty stiff. When I had the old clutch on it was a pretty light pedal (for a 306)

It was a valeo pressure plate I used. Was brand new but I got it from eBay pretty cheap as I think it was old stock they were clearing out so wonder if that's got anything to do with it. I have driven over 1000 miles with the clutch but have only recently taken notice of it getting stiff

So what was the problem?
Thanks!
