Not happy with my Tamora clutch.

Changing gear is difficult until revs are at around 3k.

1st and 5th are intermittantly particularly stiff.

Feels to me like the clutch is not fully disengaging.

Garage is not keen to take out the gearbox and have a look at the clutch as the warranty boys won't pay unless there is something visibly wrong with the clutch (broken release levers etc).

Anyone had this?

Sometimes bleeding the clutch helps, takes about 1/2 hr, other wise it could be the slave seals or clutch, on the way out.

I recently had a new clutch and I haven't been happy with the gear change since. Ones I find most difficult are 1st to 2nd and 4th to 3rd. They have bled the clutch again which seemed to help but I need to take it back for them to have a proper look.....

Just been bled during a 12k service (couldn't get it to you guys at SP).

No obvious leak from master or slave cylinders.

Feels OK as far as bite and wear are concerned but it's definitely not fully disengaging.
