Hi, is it possible to adjust the clutch as I have to press right to the floor to engage a gear. Thanks

Having the same problem but it doesn't start biting till about half way up ( could be my short legs ) will be interested in your replies

The hydraulics in the clutch perform the self adjustment.

The spring in the slave cylinder should keep the arm in light contact with the thrust bearing.
The bite point should be as soon as the cylinder is activated and starts to move the arm.

For this to happen, fresh fluid must be able to enter the master cylinder when the peddle is released.

This does not always happen if the fluid is contaminated.

Also air in the system will give a very low bite point.

Main thing to check is to see if there is excessive peddle movement before you feel any resistance from the clutch plates. Any more than about 5-10mm movement of the peddle is too much.

A worn clutch shows its self with a High bite point, but a low bite point indicates a problem with the actuating mechanisms.

Thanks for your reply, when the car is in neutral you get a whirring noise and you need to press the pedal right down to the floor to get it in gear.
