#1: Got my 2nd 206 today :D but.... Author: jimjam19927, Location: PortsmouthPosted: Tue Mar 22, 2011 6:13 pm ---- Out with the old and in with the new. Got rid of the black 1.4 glx to get my 1.4 Quicksilver. Purely because the Puggy was falling apart but now i have Lil' Jimmy (Sad name i know but once a name is called it sticks)
Anywhoooo the clutch seems really springy. Its done 55k and its a 2000 plate but i normally rest my foot on my clutch but if i do on this the clutch goes in a bit. I can like flick it. Its hard to explain really but it has a margin in which i can press the pedal and nothing happens. It sort of feels loose like it needs to be tightened?
I know nothing about clutches and stuff so input would be grateful. I will get pics up once Lil' Jimmy ( ) has been put on shim's coilovers on sat. I start the modding tomoz i.e putting puggys garms on shim. (Its a shim as she has a boys name :P)

Does it rev up more than it should and then drop down again when you accelerate? (slipping)
ive owned 4 206's (long story) and the biting point on all of those has been nearish the top of the clutch just before you take your foot off.
I *think* you can adjust them but im sure someone else can confirm this...
