hazbaz1984 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Ford Focus Mk1 (Pre-facelift). 2004. 1.6 Zetec. Not currently a major issue, although i'd like to have it looked at... Changing between 1, 2 & 3 when the car is moving (clutch fully down and disengaged), feels clunky/notchy. No grinding. Gears stay in. No problem when stationary. Gears slide in and out easily. Possibly worse when cold, but still there even when warmed up good and proper after a 25 minute drive (having been through all the gears). Clutch has a good bit of meat on it. 1/3 to mid level bite point. All gears also feel a little 'baggy'. Always need to be a little careful to not go from 4th to 1st. Cables might need tightening? Any advice? Would a lower viscosity oil/oil change help? This is the only thing that's bothering me about the car. Now the tracking is sorted and I have new front tyres the car is a much better drive. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
