harj Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 Sometimes when i press the clutch i doesn't come all the way back up again, so i have to slide my foot under it and help it. I've been told to check the fluid but i thought i'd get your ideas first? Any clues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colmartin Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 My old 306 used to do that, it normally needed more fluid as you were advised initially! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A3Floyd Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Dont these cars have clutch cables? Sounds like a frayed clutch cable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gren Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 Seem to remember a few issues over the years with the clutch slave/master cylinders. Sure there's been a couple on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S3NZ Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 I have a similar issue with the clutch pedal in my S3. It works fine but just can't seem to make it that last little bit up. Have to stick my toe behind it. Assumed the fluid was a bit low, had it replaced but the problem remains. It seems so simple -like the little spring (if there is one?) that pops the pedal up after the clutch has been released has worn out- Yet the dealer mechanics can't work it out. Frustrating. Did you get yours sorted? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harj Posted March 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Well the problem hasn't come back since a part in the clutch system snapped. A metal part that connects the rod to the cylinder was fixed and since then the problem hasn't occured. (touch wood ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
