My car's clutch is hard to push down on.

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros. Com.

Your vehicle has a clutch cable rather than a hydraulic system. The first thing I suspect is bad is the cable itself. The cable runs from the top of the clutch pedal through the bulkhead (firewall) and to a lever mounted on the transmission. I have attached a picture of where it is located under the hood so you can find it easier.

Check the condition of the cable. Make sure there is no fraying of the cable and nothing is kinked or pinched.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,
Joe
