Clutch pedal to high

[CMF_Sulimon]

Hi guys I have a high clutch pedal after I changed the clutch. I have adjusted it to work, but it only works with the pedal close to the top when it releases.
It really should be a lot lower before it releases. Also the clutch pedal has a twist to the left and is getting worse. (I adjusted it at the gearbox)

Any idea's?

I have the same issue with my new micra, I'm yet to investigate the issue. So I will let you know what I come up with!

No, the clutch isn't heavy at all.

I was wondering if the pivot shaft (if there is one?) holding the pedals might be out of position or cracked as the clutch pedal twists off to the left. The previous clutch was also heavier than the new one and might have contributed to pedal damage....

You would need to adjust the cable a little more

Yes tried that, it only works in the pedal high position.
I'm changing the gearbox this week so will check the throw out bearing position etc. Will let you all know if I find the culprit.

there is adjustment at the pedal too, it will stop the pedal returning too high, but if your cable is stretched you may have troubles

Thanks for the tip Rudy. I changed the gearbox today and bugger me the clutch pedal is now in the right place. I'd tried all the adjustment on the cable with the last gearbox and nothing worked except with the pedal releasing in a too high position.
Still not sure why a change if gearbox would remedy it.. but I'm not complaining. Thanks for the input guys.
