Mr Harry Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Got a leak in the foot well from the clutch pedal, so looks like the m/c is on the list of jobs to do. However the original clutch pedal ('84 CSW) is very heavy to push down, so are there any solutions to improve this Holding it in traffic, or releasing it smoothly is a pain I'm guess just changing the m/c alone won't make a huge difference, so are the newer clutch pedals easier, if I look at changing the whole thing? Or are there any other options to make for a softer pedal? Have heard of helper springs, but not sure if these are suitable for the older clutch pedals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Murphy Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Using the later 300 Tdi pedal assy will make things a bit easier, it has a over centre spring which assists on the way down as well as return. HTH Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Harry Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Thanks for that - I have did try the search function, but had limited success. Anyhoo, this points the way forward :) I guess a whole assembly is best as the m/c needs sorting anyway. Any suggestions for where would be the best place to source one of these? From what year are these available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Originally fitted when the 300Tdi vehicles came on the market, Td5 unit is virtually the same. Mine is a ANR5311 assembly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
