C1 Clutch

[justjim]

Hi everyone ,

Ive replaced the clutch on my c1 myself it's quite an easy job not rocket science .

anyway have you had a new clutch? what milage was it replaced at ?was it replaced at a citroen workshop? was the pedal height higher than you expected ?dose your clutch smell on hill starts?

please e mai me at this e mail address any problems with your c1 clutch that you have had mycitroenclutchreplaced@yahoo.co.uk.

Citroen do not cover the clutch under warrenty I have done 37,000 miles I suspeted the clutch was too high when I collected the car told the garage was told it was normal height .

spoke to local citroen workshop who told me the same .

when I came to replaceing the clutch I found that the cover plate was in good condition and the pressure plate was worn down to riverts,

This led me to think that the clutch pedal is set too high so it's like you riding the clutch which will lead to clutch wear very quickly now I'm no expert but on the pegeout owners club they are haveing difficulties with clutch please let me know.the clutch is adjustable its just a cable

kind regards

C1 clutch settings are high as standard, you can adjust it by reaching down to the cable at the box and rotating the adjuster nut, this will bring the bite position down, or up if need be.

hi i just bought a 2005 model c1 vibe that has only 34000 miles on it, and the clutch was replaced by a local garage before delivery...pedal travel is poor does not start pushing the clutch arm out until the pedal is pushed down to at least half way, so adjustment needed i think and the bite starts right from the bottom when you release the peddle..keep stalling it !!
