  1. Mk3 Gearbox, Clutch & Running Gear
    Hi All, I'm new here and I've just done a stage 1 Superchips remap on my PFL ST3. Should I consider getting an uprated clutch, or is the stock one good enough to handle it? Cheers

  3. Mk4 Gearbox (Manual) & Clutch
    Hi there, I bought my MK4 last year on approx 18K miles. The car felt fine and drove well. Any time I was out and after putting my foot down quite a few times it felt like the clutch started to slip. The wheels were not spinning, no traction light on, no vibrations, just that the revs would...

    Hey! Sorry if this is already about but I can't find what I'm looking for! :facepalm: For the last year or so regardless of weather / temp changes my ST appears to hate me and will not for love nor money get into reverse. It also has issues getting into first & second occasionally so sometimes...

  10. Mk2 Gearbox, Clutch & Running Gear
    Hi guys, after some advice on a clutch issue before I empty my pockets. The issue started when I noticed the clutch pedal dropped around an inch below where it should sit after the car had been parked up for a few hours, which would move the biting point to the floor making it hard to select...
