S1 pressure plate adjustment
Posted: 28 Nov 2012, 06:38
Hi,
Follow on question on the clutch. I have replaced the pressure plate springs on my S1 Rallye 1.3S with the correct violet/ gold springs as the ones installed were terribly stiff (white, much shorter and thicker) and resulted in a very tired leg in traffic...
I have the workshop manual, but obviously not the tools described. I assume my adjustment should follow the specs for 818.330-1727263 although I do not know if the original pressure plate is present (based on the wrong springs I found).
The pressure plate is branded F&S (painted blue) with markings "Typ KS200" and "H72J220".
If the pressure plate is correct, do I just adjust the levers to a distance of 43.5mm from the cover?
Many thanks,
Albert
