Hi everyone

Ive got a couple of problems, my first is my service light keeps coming on even though i had my car serviced recently?

Also i have a high biting point on my clutch... always been like this and owned the car a year now. Is this a common problem?

Any help greatly appreciated Very Happy

Cheers all

Yeh the biting point is high. Good for quick gear changes as you dont have to push the clutch down so far Smile

I think you should be more worried when your clutch is on the floor like my track car

In other words my clutch is on its last legs
