Hi guys, Just purchased myself a new 2010 VE SS Manual Ute. Ive recently noticed the clutch makes a clunk noise on release. The noise seems to be coming from under the hood. Im not sure if all this is just how the SS clutch is or something wrong. I can even put it in neutral and push the clutch...

Hi, i have just bought a 1991 vg 3.8l manual commodore ute and have noticed that the clutch seems to be slipping and i was wondering if anyone knows how to check the clutch fluid/ top it up?

my manual pedal assembly has a crack in it and i wanted to know if there is anything i need to know when changing it? like losening f the clutch cabe? wat about the brake booster? will fluid come out? cheers

since the plate is cracked could it make it harder for the clutch to engage properly n make it harder to change gears?

hey, got a vk 308. Think it's got a m21 4 speed manual box in it. Got it cheap cos the clutch was slipping. Just wondering if i need to convert it to a hydrolic clutch or can i leave the cable clutch in and where can i find a replacement? And roughly how much will the parts cost? Cheers.
