Clutch pedal stiff
I've noticed my clutch pedal is starting to feel stiff on occasions, feels like I'm pushing against a hard rubber block, gear changing can also be difficult at times (no pedal to floor as yet though).
I suppose this would indicate a clutch master cylinder problem, and not the clutch itself (have no clutch plate or thrust-bearing fault noise). Can I get away with just changing the clutch master cylinder, or will topping up the fluid work, I suppose I better check it first. :duh: Cheers fellas. |
It can be debris in the fluid in the valve at the end of the M/C. Try a bleed first.;) easiest option or strip the m/c and clean it all.

I dont drive the car that often, and have been driving several other newer cars lately, so I may just feel that my ZT's clutch is heavy than most. My blue ZT has a heavy clutch, but doesn't seem as heavy as the red, so I too am unsure. :shrug: |

I've just been out and had a quick look, how the hell is one meant to work in that small space, and why on earth is the MC black? :getmecoat:
The fluid level seems fine. It must be me, maybe I'm becoming paranoid. :eek: https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/a...1&d=1497976859 |
Hi,It was a fit and forget system :D
Firstly,cost nothing to clean the little valve.... https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/s...d.php?t=192663 Good luck Mike |

You can either disconnect the end of the pipe from the MC, by pushing the locking pin out, or pull the entire pipe through, or a mix of both. [1] many fail to realise that this can be removed, it is worth taking it off for the better light and sight you get on the MC. It runs along the dash just below the steering wheel. |

Fellas, so would I be best investing in a Tazu MC, or go about cleaning the one I have? |
