@erictechUK23 күн бұрын
The cable has not been adjusted for a long time and you have run out of free play at the pedal. Use something like a very big screwdriver or bar to move the operating lever on top of the gearbox to take tension off the cable. Then you can move the nut. You may want to jam the operating lever with a big socket whilst you spin the nut a few rotations to lengthen the cable. Once you have some free play at top of the pedal you can adjust as per video...

The procedure is similar, but not the same. The 1.2 litre model uses the PSA PureTech engine and a PSA-designed gearbox (rather than Toyota, as on the 1.0L models). Its a cable-operated clutch, similar to the one shown in this video, but the cable attachment at the gearbox is different.

I have a 2006 C1 and the clutch pedal does not pull backwards as in the video when you lifted the pedal with your toes. Do you know what this means? I managed to adjust the bite point by applying a fair amount of force to turn the fluted screw with my fingers. I hope I did not damage anything, because the clutch pedal now vibrates slightly when initially pressing down.

So which direction do you turn the nut if the clutch comes in late when you release the pedal? Clockwise or anticlockwise? And is the direction of turn for clockwise/anticlockwise determined from the clutch looking back down the cable or looking forward towards the clutch?

If the clutch is biting high then you need to lengthen the cable. Standing in front of the car looking down at the gearbox you need to rotate the plastic adjuster clockwise.

You can buy a replacement cover from a Peugeot or Citroen dealer. The part number is B000983880 and its description is 'Additional Brake Light Cover'. To slow down the corrosion you can spray plenty of "Jenolite Waxoil Spray" or "Dinitrol ML Cavity Wax" inside the hatch box-section. These are available from Amazon, Ebay etc.

Couple of notes for anyone installing the hardwire kit. The fuse box cover won't fit after the adapter is installed. The fuse fitted in the fuse box is a low profile mini (at least in my 2015 Aygo it is), the Nextbase adapter is a standard mini fuse, which fits in to the fuse box, but the original fuse won't fit in to the adapter. A trip to Halfords for a mini fuse of the correct rating fixes it, but frustrating if you didn't know.

Super video and very helpful. Wifes c1 has slight clutch slip. Gears engage fine but no free play at all on pedal. Solid push from the start. Would this adjustment work to rectify this and if so looking from top down into engine bay would adjusting nut need turning to my left (anti clock) or to my right (clockwise). Many thanks
@erictechUK6 ай бұрын
The clutch pedal should be level with the brake pedal, or slightly above it. Try lifting the clutch pedal. If the pedal is resting high and when you try to lift it it is already against the stop and won't lift then this is likely the reason for your clutch slip and the cable needs to be adjusted urgently. You would turn the adjuster clockwise to lengthen the cable. If, however, you can lift the pedal a centimetre or two then cable adjustment is not the reason for the slip and it is likely that the clutch is worn out.
