Clutch Adjustment / Biting Point?????

[A.m.C_Ibiza1]

had a quick search but drew a blank!!

since my pedal snapped about 5 months ago the bite point has been very low down! almost to the floor in fact!!! when mine actualy snapped it ripped the sensor out of its holder on top of the pedal box (sorry for the vivid location lol) i fitted a new one and screwed it in but im thinking that the position of the switch might effect the bite point???

Any ideas?????

Yeah, the further you screw the swith in, the lower the biting point, and the less you screw it in the higher the biting point.

ah! fair enough! i had a little poke today and the bugger ripped some thread off! the pedal sits right now though!!! Thanks for the info

No probz, i also had the problem of ripping threads off, but found that a splodge of super glue did the trick

so cupra clutchs are not auto ajusting??

well you have the plunger switch which is attatched to the clutch pedal, and depending on the position of this switch, the clutch is adjusted, this is only the case on the Sport, Cupra and Cupra R models as they have the hydraulic clutch setup.

If the pedal doesnt come back up fully, and it does not hit the switch, it will drop pretty much to the floor as this is its "default" position if it cannot read the switch. Also if you take your switch out, you will find that your biting point will change
