Clutch pinching/binding on 172

[Jamesstone]

Basically been like this since brand new, think it may be just a case of a dry cable, any one had this? its making me look like a right t**t in traffic, seems to right on the bighting point that its happening :dapprove: , is there any way of re-lubeing the cable or just of to reno for a new one? also have heard the clutch fork/input shaft can be re-lubed with out removing the box?

everthing thing BUT gearboxs/clutchs are my thing :dapprove:

You can lube the cable etc but best idea is to change for a new cable but takes a bit to change not as easy as regreasing it.

Cannot realy relube the box etc. The cable only cheap though.

I changed my cable and it made quite a bit of difference it still creaks when hot though . Its quite a long job if you havn't done it before but if you take your time its not too hard.

Was playing with it last night, took all the air box off, added plenty of lube there & around the clutch pedal... & there we have it, fixed!!!.. until it gets hot like you say yours does caister .. how much is a new one from reno & any one know the part no.?

Wouldn't bother changing it tbh Rentech took a look at mine and just lubed it as its a comman fault and there's not a great deal that can be done about it. Someone on here has had a new cable, new clutch, new pedal assembly and a new clutch and it still does it.

dam thing :dapprove: , well atleast lubeing it up has helped, thanks for letting me know before wasteing the ££ on a new cable

20 for a new cable not exactly a fortune.
