Hi,

delighted to find club devoted to the Micra. A bit of help please. I have a 1997 Micra 1.0 which I purchased last year with just 48,000 miles on.
Ever since getting it (without a test drive first - silly boy) I have found that if you depress the clutch pedal fully to the floor, it is impossible to get into any gear. If one keeps the clutch pedal half way up, then the gearchanges are easy. It is not always easy however to get the clutch pedal "hovering" in the half way up position.
Took car for full service but garage provided not answers.

Any idea what might be wrong?:down:

welcome mate, i'd hazard a guess at the clutch being worn and possibly on the verge of collapsing. shouldnt cost too much at a garage mate. (Y)
