Hello all 😊

Just bought my first e30, 1987 325i convertible,
Love the appearance 😍.

Only have one issue atm, thought id ask if any one could share their wisdom, the clutch has a very high biting point (i have been told it was replaced not to long ago). The margin between biting point and stalling is narrow. Not too bad on flat ground, however the car strggles on hill starts (even slight slopes πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ)

Is it possible to lower (and/or alter) the biting point at all?

Thanks all 😊

Welcome to the zone mate, master and slave cylinders are the usual culprits but both need to be changed at the same time.

Mart.
Only the E46 cab left now.
Just got too old.
