Hi everyone, maybe I’m just being over sensitive but the clutch on my puma MheV st line X seems to bite on the low side. If it was a cable I would say it needs adjusting a bit.
My g/f also has a puma st line and the clutch feels firm and the gears seem easier than mine.
Took it to Ford dealer, but I get the impression that all the technician did was sit in it and press the clutch pedal and then do same on another vehicle, to then tell me it feels the same as other pumas!,
Mine feels woolly and I have to press pedal right to floor when changing gear, is there any way to bleed the clutch as I can’t find a slave cylinder.
Rather try this than go back and forth dealing with the usual crap that the mechanics (??) try to fob you off with.

It's under warranty so dealer should sort it. Maybe be more firm with them or try another dealer.

Low biting point on mine and clutch is firm but no issues with gears.

As with warranty, Rizmo has covered that one ;)
