Hi All,

Got into the TVR the other day, and the clutch pedal felt a bit odd - I guess it's what some people call 'spongy'. The bite point was seemingly much lower than before too. Now it struggles to go into gear at all, and once there and moving, changing down (particularly into 2nd) is really hard.

Anyone had this before? (the search is down).

Any pointers as to what is causing this and how to address?

Thanks,

Eggs

Check the fluid level in the master cylinder. Sounds like you may be loosing fluid and air has got into the system. If fluid is low a leak on the master or slave cylinder is the likely cause.
