Clutch Biting Point

posted by  someone claiming to be bobiscuit on  Fri Jul 18 00:32 CST 2008 [RELATED]

2001 Volvo S40 1.9 Diesel with manual gears.

My biting point is usually right at the top of the clutch travel. It doesn't even begin to engage until my foot is nearly off the pedal.

But then, randomly once or twice a day, it'll bite really low down, just as soon as I start lifting my foot, and it'll progressively engage all the way to the top (as it should).

What could cause the biting point to sometimes change like that?

Could be the hydraulic system needs bled? If you are going to do it yourself, top the reservoir right up or you will get no flow through.
