Hello all,
I have an GTI6, It has been off the road for a few years and I'm very happy to have it running and back on the road.
An old issue as resurfaced unfortunately and I'm looking for some direction and advice:
- The clutch pedal becomes "Floppy" when stuck in traffic. Hard to describe, but the pedal itself does not fully return. - I have removed the spring assist in the pedal with better feel but the issue still happens when in stop start traffic.
- I had the cable replaced before she went into hibernation and the issues remains. (Not sure if the new cable is genuine or not)
My thinking is that the cable may sieze when in hot conditions resulting in it not returning.
Do I bite the bullet and go for a new clutch? Or is there something I'm missing?
Ps I'm no mechanic but will give it a crack and willing to learn. I also know when I'm out of my depth....
Thx for any advise
