Hard getting in and out of 1st gear S70

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N. on  Tue Jan 7 12:11 CST 2003 [RELATED]

There is a service campaign for hard to shift clutch:

TSB 4410006 Campaign - Decrease In Clutch Efficiency

Description is:

Campaign No. 92 Clutch control cylinder

Background:

Some vehicles may experience a decrease in clutch efficiency, which could result in difficulty when changing gears. To prevent this condition, a coupling on the clutch control cylinder will be secured.

"Campaign" means fixed for free if you complain to the dealer
(in U.S.).

There is also this one for an updated clutch pedal spring to
provide smoother engagement (not a campaign, so you pay for
the parts).

TSB 4410004 Clutch Pedal - Revised Auxiliary Spring

This info is from alldatadiy.com. I have a subscription ($25/year) and
have found it worth it for my 98 T5M. They have the full TSB text but it is
copyrighted info. A dealer can also print the TSBs. I'll add that I have
not done either of these on my car.
