Hey,
My clutch cable has just gone on my car, and i have just ordered the correct part, and should be with me in a few days. I really need help about how to change the cable, any links to websites would be extremely helpful, or any methods described on here.
It is the clutch cable, as i can start the car and drive along in 1st, but the pedal is just dead.
Thanks very muchPlease help, How do i change the clutch cable on my peugeot 205 turbo diesel?One answerer here has NEVER looked at a 205 engine. Let him rip out your gearbox! Your cable connects pedal and CLUTCH release lever, NOT gearbox.
Another answerer is correct, buy a book.
The clutch pedal is easily fed through the firewall (engine-passenger wall). There will be a rubber plug that comes out. And a round ball on the cable that fits into the rubber plug.
The hardest part is attaching it to the clutch pedal. But, when you remove the old one, you can see what is involved.
Since it is only a few paragraphs in the HAYNES MANUAL #0932, page 6-2, I will reproduce it for you now.
CLUTCH CABLE removal and refitting:
1. Slacken the locknut and adjuster nut on the end of the cable.
2. Release the cable end fitting from the intermediate lever and recover the pushrod. (yikes! you may have lost the pushrod along the road somewhere?? the pedal will be 'dead' due to this loss)
3. Working inside the car, remove the lower facia panel from under the steering column.
4. Pull off the spring clip and remove the clevis pin from the top of the clutch pedal to disconnect the cable end. Acess is limited, and on some models it is easier if the pedal is removed to disconnect the cable end.
5. Release the cable from the bulkhead (firewall) and withdraw it into the engine compartment.
REFITTING:
6. Refitting is the reversal of removal. On completion, adjust the clutch pedal stroke as described in Chapter 1.
7. (my brief explanation of Chapter 1...pedal stroke from carpet to upper pedal limit should be 14 cm +/- 0.5 cm as measured from the base of the STEERING WHEEL ).Please help, How do i change the clutch cable on my peugeot 205 turbo diesel?you should see a mechanic about this because it is in a way foolish to toy with a car if you dont know what to do. If the pedal is gone then you might not need a clutch cable because the cable is the thing that hooks the gear box to the pedal so it might have just come loose. there are 3 ways to do this:
1. rip out the underneath near the pedals and feed it through there.
2. rip out the gear box and feed it through.
3. make your way through the long and tangled jungle of pipes and cylinders under the hood and connect it at the back.Please help, How do i change the clutch cable on my peugeot 205 turbo diesel?Buy your self a auto. repair Book.
