Question


For all those who at one stage or another driven or owned a Renault 19 16V you may know what im going on about as thats how heavy my clutch felt
Id stopped for fuel (been driving round town) and after getting back into my car and driving off the clutch just felt sooooooo heavy my car does have a little judder but not all the time and its easy to get round, but i drove it through town then gave her a quick blast on the motorway which seemed to cure it
Anyone had this problem with their scoob?
BTW its an MY00 with PPP and downpipe

Fairly common. It used to happen to my MY00. Reliably informed that it was due to the hydraulic clutch fluid overheating.
