Problem when garage started working on it, has a dual mass flywheel, clutch plate that came out was a plain plate, no springs on it, it was virtually worn out, almost to rivets. The new clutch plate has a series of springs on it. However it is now fitted and working. LUK slave was also fitted.
The clutch pedal still seems be biting right at the top, can't see any difference from where it was before, is this normal? Anyone else see this as a problem.
Thanks
IMO , with all parts replaced,your biting point should be at 1/3 ...1/2 the
pedal travel

precisely ,i got this on mine (diesel):
