Been having a weird feeling in the clutch pedal , I can feel a vibration and also when putting the clutch down it feels like a bendy straw ( bit you pull up and down ) .. only way I can describe it.

Also getting a crunch in 3rd gear but it depends on how hard I'm pushing the car..

It's got a brand new clutch , release bearing and new slave cylinder

[peterzs]

bled it OK.

[Jason04r]

Thought these are sealed units , hence not being able to bleed them ?

[petet16]

Did you also replace the slave cylinder mounting bracket ?.

[Jason04r]

Yea went for the land rover as it's spose to be stronger

How about the clutch operating arm, did you clean and grease it when you fitted the clutch.

[Jason04r]

Didn't

It's been okay till this week and it's starting to annoy be a little. Drop the box I guess to access the arm?

[petet16]

Ah boo, yeah, it's a box off job.

Another possibility is that a little bit of air might have got into the system when you connected the quick release coupling, something that might work is to block the clutch pedal down over night, this allows any air that might be trapped to work its way out through the master cylinder, it's a bit hit and miss wether it'll work but I've done it for brakes before and had a good result.

[Jason04r]

I'll give it a bash , could of been a chance that when the save popped it could of sucked a little air from the master cylinder..
