Hi all
Since fitting my paddle clutch and SMF occasionally I was experiencing clutch drag.
This is when you are travelling to a stop and drop down into 1st gear. Even though the clutch is fully pressed the car still inches foward; a bit like an auto when in drive and you take foot off brake.
.
Anyway initially I though slave cylinder which is a pig to change (gearbox out) but came across the shim mod.
Completed today and I have to say it has all but disappeared. No clutch drag anymore!!!
The shim mod apparently cures a number of gearbox issues, the following thread is a good reas and part numbera are correct
