It now has a new clutch and pressure plate, machined flywheel and new thrust bearing.
Now there seems to be another issue, when you put your foot down on the clutch it works fine and holds there. But when you release the clutch it feels like there is no pushing force against your foot, and almost like it takes a little while for the clutch to release. There is a slight noise when you put the clutch in as you accelerate through the gears, it lasts as long as it takes to depress the clutch. It's not loud and kinda hard to explain what it sounds like. I can feel it through my foot too.
The only thing at this stage that hasn't been replaced are the clutch lines and the clutch booster. Is there a way to test the booster?
Mines bit like that but giving a couple of runs seems a bit better
mine grabs ok but feels soft call in and compare mate
Yeah it's weird to explain. Like the clutch is a bit hesitant to return.
I might just drive it how it is for a little while and order a booster rebuild kit.
The clutch is not hard to push in when the engine is running.
bit of grease on the fork or crap under the bootQuote:

The noise though..
Again could be new clutch seating in?? I guess monitor it and see how it goes..
The clutch in the new gu is completely different to the old q. The old q use to engage and disengage quite far into the pedal.. the gu is near the top..
So it sounds like I'm a manual Newby riding the clutch or bunny hopping it around lol
Nah mate this is definitely not right. I had a 4 Terrain clutch in my old Patrol and it felt great. This is just weird... the pedal feeling is just wrong.
The noise sounds like it's coming from the firewall or the pedal. Definitely not inside the box.
You haven't got a vacuum leak have you? Was the booster inspected at all?
Yeah they pulled the booster apart and think it all looked fine.
Can't hear any vacuum leaks at all.
