Clutch adjustment/grinding gears - dammfust - 14:th-Sep-2017 Hi, I've recently bought a 1.4t astra J. To me the clutch bite is way too low. I find myself trying to get through gears rapidly and grinding gears, especially 1st into 2nd. With the nature of the engine, it needs to be reved, but I find myself nervous of moving through the gears too much. It may well be me, and the way I drive, but the clutch bites and disengages within the bottom inch of travel. Is this normal? Can it be adjusted at all? Thanks, Ben RE: Clutch adjustment/grinding gears - mw2299 - 22:nd-Sep-2017 I have a 1.3 CDTI and I've came from a car with an extremely high bite, so it was a bit strange to me also. I wouldn't say it's unusually low (for me anyway) although I do agree it's a bit of a race to change from 1st -> 2nd. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk |
