| Roomster Scout 1.9Tdi, July 2007, 7.5k miles High clutch action.. Anyone else noticed this on their car? Can be a nuisance in stop/start traffic. Had a word with my dealer's mechanic about it & he said they were all like that - something to do with the hydraulic clutch fitted to Roomsters, which can't be adjusted. He then took it for a test drive & passed it off as normal. Only had the car a week, after trading in my Fabia Vrs, so I'm comparing the clutch action with what I was used to - low, smooth and easy to drive. |

| Not noticed that either. My car appears to have had the wrong clutch pedal fitted but still feels normal. Are you sure you are not confusing it with a very light action? As a clutch wears the action gets more heavy to press down, as this happens gradually we tend not to notice it untill we have it replaced or drive a different or newer car. |

| The difference in bite point between the Roomster courtesy car I had and my Fabia was really noticeable when I got back in my own car - I was kangarooing all over the place for the first few miles!!! I'm guessing they're all like that by the looks of others' posts...???

| Thanks for the comments. Looks like I'll have to clock up some miles and get used to the different clutch 'action'. Wish it could be adjusted though.. |
