recently (past day or so) ive noticed that the catch point on my clutch has gotten closer and closer to the floor until last night i barely had enough room to press it becasue it was so close to the floor.



Im just makin sure that it is in fact my clutch on its way out before I do anything rash.



and if so, any suggestions of where i can get a decent clutch for cheap?(tis the f'ing season)



thanks guys/girls

The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?

I think that as a clutch wears the grip point moves higher not lower. I would probably look for hydraulic issues (with the clutch master or slave) first. You may have a leak, or some air in the system.

Sounds just like that. I think you just have to take air out of your system. Doesnt sound like your clutch is going to broke. Check is there some air first.

i couldnt remember if it got higher or lower as it wore


OK! checkd the levels, and my clutch fluid resevior is very low, so i will assume a leak.


any suggestions about how to find where it is?
