As title says.....What could this be......Clutch, does it need calibrating..?

 

[David C]

Probably.

 

[bobda]

When does it do it? When warm, cold, or all the time?
First port of call is clutch rod calibration but lots of sensors are a factor in how the Sele system behaves - could be a lambda or MAF fault for example.

 

[AndyT350]

When at traffic lights or pulling away at junctions...If's fine the rest of the time going up and down the box...

If you pull away gently it's fine.....As we have only just bought the car its all a bit new to us....

I drove it yesterday and didn't have an issue..So went out with the wife and it did happen...I think its because she wasn't giving it enough revs.....She needed to drive it harded I think as it now doesn't happen if you put your foot down a bit.....Your really do need to learn how to drive a Selespeed.....

 

[merlin]

So true.

 

[AndyT350]

Still not sure if this is right so going to get her looked at by a specialist.....Its still jerks/judders in first gear when pulling away so maybe it needs calibrating...Was told this needs doing every year.......

You need to use a reputable email address (I think hotmail falls outwith this). Try DavidC on here for help, or if you're stuck I've got his mobile number.

had a abarth selespeed not quite the same but similar was all or nothing first used to leapfrog , i used to wait mins till revs droped then slowlly till into second and was fine also gearbox was allways better when i switched to manual in first then was fine allways better in manual mode and didnt drink as much 2.4 nightmare getting it on aramp but fantastic cruising you can calibrate clutch for about 50 quid but cluch should last till 90 000 anway

 

[AndyT350]

Worse possible outcome I think...New clutch and gearbox needed................Bottom...
