307 Clutch

Hi
just had to have my clutch replaced as it started to slip badly , car is a
53 plate 307 hdi but i do not know its history . Is this a known problem
with this model?

 

Your clutch should last a lot more than that ,mine has been in my car 4
years and i have not even ajusted it yet,also do you drive with your
left foot near the pedal??as the weight of your foot can make the clutch
wear out.are you a boy racer and like burning your clutch out and wheel
spinning?
well let hope this NEW clutch will last a very long time, from chris

You don't say what the mileage is on the car, but in my limited experience,
Peugeot clutches last quite a long time. Don't know if the 307 or HDI clutch
is any different, but my 405 clutch was still original at 150k. As you don't
know the history, you will not know how it was driven before you got it. As
Chris says, if the PO used the clutch pedal as a footrest, then you could
expect an early replacement. Don't laugh, my wife did!
By the way, Chris, they have auto-adjusting cables on them, so you won't
need to adjust it.

Thanks for the reply Brian.my 405 has got a ajuster.on the end of the
cable.i have found another 405 in Addlestone,same colour and same year
happy to see another one round here not far from me.

Actually the 307's use hydraulic clutch control.
