Hi!

 

since 3 or 4 months ago i have been noticing i have to depress to the floor the clutch pedal in order the clutch disengage, and also it engage very low (close to the floor too)

(i attached a image, the blue bar is the travel distance of my clutch pedal and the green portion is where it disengage and engage

the clutch  was replaced new when i replace the engine about 40k km ago.

 

i remember my Peugeot 205 i used to adjust some nuts and that's it, new again lol

 

Air in the system?

Yes, but the 205 has a cable clutch, Fabias have hydraulic. Maybe, if you bleed it...

Have a look above gearbox you will find a bleed nipple on a black hose going above gearbox area. It shares brake fluid in brake fluid reservoir. You will need a pressure bleeder something like sealey vs820 bleeder.

 

When Fabia clutch release bearing leaked brake fluid the clutch pedal wouldn't come back up. The low brake fluid due to leak allowed brakes to function but the clutch pedal acted up first (for safety).

 

Check your brake fluid level. If low look under car. If no leak, then bleed clutch. Same nipple as on the brake calipers.

 

Not need for a pressure bleeder unless you've already got one and fancy using it. 10 minute job with an assistant, a spanner, a bit of pipe and a coke can.

 

Check the fluid level.

Get someone to pump the clutch about a dozen times and hold it down.

Stick a bit of pipe on the end and run it into something to catch the fluid, open the bleed nipple (it will squirt).

Pump the pedal another dozen times, hold it down and close the nipple. Should be alright from there. 

 

Check the fluid level again.

The fluidlevel is ok, no leaks, so, where excatly do i have to stick the piece of pipe?
