woohoo Jock is a gift from god!

[davidol]

lol well not quite but hes sorted out the problem with my clutch pedal, turns out the rod that slides inside the clutch master cylinder actually clips into the white clip that goes inside the welded box on the side of the pedal, i didnt realise this whilst reassembling it (i didnt strip the pedal out, my uncle did it for me as i was working) and so thought it just rested in there from the pressure inside the master cylinder forcing it outwards

Jock also pointed out that it could only be clipped in with the pedal removed from its mountings and then it reassemabled with the rod clipped in to the clip.

My clutch is now silky smooth again and I can select all gears propperly, its been pissing me off for a while now so Im a happy bunny

On a more depressing note, my turbo back miltek exhaust arrived there this morning and Grant and Jock had the time to fit it but i didnt have the funds yet as it arrived earlier than expected lol, typically my luck!

Jock also took the car for a spin and agreed its not boosting as hard as it should be but i'd need to book it in for fault code reading as hes blown up his Vag-com

Anyways, happy days for now

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Haha didnt you clip it back onto the rod? lol oops..

 

[davidol]

well thanks for pointin it out daz you muppet! I asked everyone enough times including you so your off my christmas card list and on my 'special' list lol!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

There are a few pics about here somewhere from where other have had the same problem. They would of been a big help to you.

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Sorry, I thought it was too obvious! I wouldnt of thought you'd just let it hang around inside the pedal box behind the weld. lol

 

[davidol]

well it worked for a bit after i put the pedal back in, it just got gradually worse!

 

[PaulD]

Glad you got it sorted mate and that it wasn't anything major..

 

[davidol]

cheers paul!

 

[Forbez]

[flashbsd]

forbez re window problem: pull your battery off and reset the window close feature (in manual)

 

[Forbez]
