    Hi bud,

    was just reading your thread about your modified clutch (biting point)

    http://forums.mg-rover.org/showthread.php?t=58806&highlight=clutch+pedal

    i was wondering is this possible with a mg zr 1.4 04 plate? because yesterday i bought the car and i noticed the car does bite high up the clutch, and sometimes it stutters because ive raised it too much lool.

    hope you can help as ive only started to delve into the MG ZR :)

    yes i would love to take you up on your offer, i am very greatfull 4 your offer of help and if you get my car back on the road i will be over the moon. i had only just bought the car and had been driving it a week b4 cambelt change, to me i had no probs at all with the car apart from wanting the belts changed cus they were making a bit of a whining noise and ive heard that they cause considerable damage if they snap. but now the mech said there was a prob when he took it but he never said this b4 it all went wrong, maybe trying to cover iz tracks i guess, tappets and cam belts all done while he had it, he said it was making a tapping noise thats why he changed them but he only changed 4. i could go on and on about probs im having with the car now theres a list but in the beggining it was fine.
