Clutch/Gearbox Woes

<< < (2/4) > >>

Dr Neil:
it might be worth trying to re bleed the clutch??

does it go into 1st gear easily enough??

just a thought but have you changed the fluid in the gearbox?It may be worth draining that if not to see if there are any bits of metal loating around, is the gearbox noisey when driving.Just some things to try before the expense of a new gearbox,

hope this helps, Neil...

Rangie3.0LtrDan:
I dont know how to drain or refill a gearbox (refilling is obviously the more important part!)

Rangie3.0LtrDan:
Now from what i gather the clutch pedal should be level with the brake pedal, well on mine the clutch pedal is lower than the brake pedal, enough so my foot cant slide from the clutch to the brake!

forkarm:
you can adjust the clutch pedal on a 200 tdi discovery.where the master cylinder plunger bolts to the clutch pedal . simply slacken the locknut then turn the bolt head.this will raise or lower the pedal height .if you turn the bolt so that the pedal is at it's highest this will give you more travel on the clutch.
hope this helps.

That's you problem then, you've had everything clutch related swapped to no avail, so check that off your list.  I'd hope it's not the 'box for your sake.  Is bitting point in 1st really near the floor?  Does the pedal feel spngey for a while before going hard?  They can be a b****rd to bleed, try slackening off the union on the master cylinder and bleeding from there first, and/or use an eezy-bleed.
