Who changed the clutch for you?
Reckon its time to take the car back to them.

i changed the clutch myself,i have done quite a few as i reckon i am competant enough.this has me stumped though as i reckon its put in ok

hi,any update before i have to remove gearbox etc?

[davidireland]

I think you may have the clutch disc on backwards.

Is there any adjust in the cable either at the gearbox end or possibly at the top of the clutch cable not sure on pugs but i know some fords have a twin half cog type thing at the top of the peddle witch would need resetting to take up any slack in the cable hope this helps.
