Nigel_1 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Hi all, I just bought a second hand 2018 Mk3 Focus Ecoboost 1.0 (125HP) with 20,000 miles on the clock (one previous owner) and noticed the biting point is the highest I've seen in a car though I haven't driven many, it's a little higher than the Ka+ (2018) that I previously drove, and other non-Ford hire cars etc. The clutch doesn't slip in use and I've tried a couple of the stationary tests mentioned around the internet to test for slip and it's holding/gripping okay. I've also read that in a hydraulic clutch a high biting point is normal and there's no way to adjust it. However I can't be sure if it's all normal or if the clutch is well worn and I'd need to replace sometime soon. What do you think? Does it sound normal or anything else I can do to verify? Thanks, Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F0CUE Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 It's normal in a Ford focus nothing to worry about. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Yes Focue is right, it's just normal for a Focus. My clutch pedal was so high they didn't fit it 😉 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
