clutch to the floor

i went to my car today, and put my foot on the clutch and it went straight to the floor, and a black piece of plastic fell down from the pedal area, looks like it has fallen from near where there is a white piece of plastic too, any ne have any ideas.

sounds like clutch pedal
as the white plastic piecepushed through pedal?

yeah from what i can see under there,

needs new pedal
they are a bit tight to do if you remove complete pedal assy but you should be able to change just the pedal the over centre spring will be a sod if you just do pedal

bummer, well may try myself once i get one, so i only need to order a pedal then , nothing else was a bummer as got stuck out in a car park lol

check the white clip on the clutch pushrod for damage but it should be ok

will do, it looked ok it looks like the black plastic clip has snapped ooff

very common problem mate, have a search on the TTforum.co.uk as there are loads and loads of posts on this and i think even a diy guide to changing it, some have bought a new one and had some additional welding done to strengthen it before putting it in.

It is a bugger of a job though and if you can get the seat out it will help and the steering wheel would be a bonus.

Hi i have just done mine, pain in the backside job, dont buy a new pedal from VAG they sell you the same one with exactly the same weak weld points, i had mine welded and strengthened, if the black plastic bit has snapped a new one is a couple of pounds to replace, but getting the white clip on the end of the master cylinder pushrod back into the pedal assembly is a nightmare i downloaded some instructions from the web, someone had done it before and had taken loads of pics to show the repair it was really useful

Do you know were you found the instruction?
