clutch bite point

[maffyoo]

never noticed before... missus uses the 182 a lot so the seat moves a fair bit. clutch bite point feels very high.. have done 11,000 miles driven very hard from new... lots of bouncing off the clutch although its never seemed to be a problem.. what is it ??? clutch cable slipped or something more sinister.... can anyone recommend a good dealer near selby where i can take it for service etc (and somewhere i can trust them to look at the clutch without taking the piss ..!! )

The clutchs on 172/182 are generally very high.

I went to the garage about mine about 2 months back, no problem with it at all, they are very high!!

aah, cool... thought that may be the case.. adds to the whole crap driving position thing ! will move seat back and see how it is

higher the bite point the worse its worn in general isnt it?

The bite point can go either way. It can go past the floor which is a complete pain; Or it can come up to your knees (lol). Get the cable looked at, its when it starts to slip that theres a real problem.
