Why after adjusting the clutch to a point where when engaging into first or second there are no grinds on a cold start....
but after the car is hot it begins to grind in first second, and third does not engage as well does the cable expand this much from the heat?? |

You did the adjustment right, but your theory is off a bit. There is no spring in the clutch pedal assembly itself. The only spring you feel is the spring of the pressure plate. Thus, you tighten the cable to make the TO bearing stay against the plate, but not so tight that it is hard against the plate (as demonstrated by the 3/4-1/2" of wiggle in the pedal).
Is that clearer? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
