You cant adjust the pin i think you might need to replace the seals.

You can adjust the pin under the drivers side for a high clutch or low clutch.

What seals you refering to?

I thought you ment the one on the slave cylinder, dont think adjusting your paddle hight will solve your problem. Im talking about the slave and master cylinder seals. Bad idea for now cause youll need the car saterday.

Does it get better if you pump it a few times?

Not really. It only starts working properly when the car heats up.

Youll need to get the old gearbox oil out and replace it.

Damn all the bolts are stripped on the gbox.

remove the front section of propshaft and jack the front of the car up - that will get 95% of the old oil out!

once the prop is back in, fill it through the gearstick hole!

actually - this method only requires that you undo 4 bolts on the propshaft, and 4 bolts on the gearshift boot. plus 1 circlip. its no big deal!

DDrillergy29 Jun 2009, 15:22

Ok Im gonna go look for these 4 bolts by the propshaft. The shifter thingy is easy

vveecee29 Jun 2009, 21:27

they're gonna be tight bolts on that prop, dont crush your fingers when the nut cracks loose!!!

I adjusted the clutch and it seems ok, clutch is high though. So Ill leave it for now.

Need to sort out the BOV, cos I feel theres a boost leak.

you're right. hell, that'll cut it down to 5 bolts to remove! and it will make the job about 60% easier.
