Hey,
This was a problem a while ago on my mk2 but seemed to dissapear. For a while now the clutch cable seems to be sticking...when i first start the car i have to push the clutch in and out a few times to "loosen" it up, sometimes its so hard that i have to put a fair bit of effort in to first push it in. I figure this is the outer clutch cable melting somewhere near the block and restricting the inner cable from releasing correctly. Today it got to the point where when changing gears, once the clutch has been let out, the car revs for a second then finally engages. It also feels that the car has lost power, when i put my foot down a bit it has lost the once good response. Has anyone had anything similar happen to them?...any ideas? My first thought was maybe a braided clutch cable to prevent it melting again. Thanks, Glenn
