Post Clutch issues
Hi Guys

Im strugling with my clutch at the moment. It keeps getting stuck on. The pedel is free and cable seems ok. The only way i can get it off is to go under the car and pull the clutch fork back. Any ideas on why this is? Im hoping its not going to be an engine out job :cry:

Its been doing it every now and then but now its all the time. Ended up driving home very gently last night trying to to slip the clutch too much.

Knackered thrust bearing? Think the engine will have to come out even if it isnt....

I dont understand the question is it sticking as in remaining dis-engaged or sticking as in depressing pedal but remains engaged?
is the cable kinked, chaffed, gummed with crap or on the crossbox? Has the external plastic come off allowing the outer to corrode? Are all the bellhousing nuts done up tight?
you can undo the cable and check it works without taking the engine out
