Hi all
I bought a 2001 Ibiza Cupra on Friday. Have spent the weekend sorting out a few issues with it, but on a drive today noticed something with the clutch which after googling and searching on here I still can't find an answer to.
I took the car out for around an hour today and as I was heading home the gears became very difficult to select, to the point where I had to change gear in timing with the engine rpm. I went back into the car this evening and found that the gears seemed better now that the car had cooled down , but that to get the smoothest gear change my foot had to be right to the floor on the clutch, which obviously isn't right !
Clutch bite point is very close to the floor I.e half an inch.
Have checked all fluid levels and they are fine.
Any ideas what this could be ? The clutch isn't slipping at all so I wonder if this is a hydraulic issue ? Any help appreciated.
