  • Mk 4 Manual - A question on the clutch

    Hi all,

    I'm helping my son buy a Mk4 golf manual 2 litre and have a couple of questions on the clutch.

    How much travel should there be before the clutch takes up? I am used to a clutch taking up about half way in the travel but the one I tested today takes up almost all the way out. Changing gears is good but you only have to rest the foot on the clutch for it to operate....

    Is this a sign that the clutch is on the way out or is it just a case of it needing adjustment?

    Thanks in advance for advice.

    no adjustment on those, if the pedal is high the clutch is towards the end of its life
