What's wrong with my ford focus at clutch?
The other day I drove my bros Honda civic si I noticed his clutch was different, when I press it all the way down it was not so deeb compare to my ford focus st it's much more deeb. Could it be my st clutch is deeb because its getting old and wearing off? Or it's the way ford built it?
Added (1). If it's the way ford built it what after market kit I can use to change it?
Added (2). St
Maybe it's just low on hydraulic oil…
I have no idea what deeb means!
The Ford Focus uses a hydronic clutch release system, it is self adjusting. The distance of travel is a function of the pivot point of the clutch pedal and the ratio of the bores of the slave and master cylinder. It was designed that way to provide a mechanical advantage over the pressure plate.
To get less travel a bigger bore master cylinder could be used, but this would require more pressure to be exerted by the driver on the clutch pedal. The pivot point for the clutch pedal could be changed, but again this would require more effort on the part of the driver to operate the clutch.
The advantages of longer travel are less pedal effort is needed and it is less sensitive to changes. That means that it is easier to "feather the clutch" when needed. I don't have the space here to go into how the clutch can be used for "traction control", "Throttle steer" or "Heel and toe" driving. I will only say there are times when a wider latitude of clutch sensitivity is needed.
Deeb? Two different cars. Check the clutch on a SIMILAR car.
Two different cars two different clutch assemblies.
WTF does "deeb" mean?
Take it to Ford Service department and have them change the clutch fluid.
Not sure what you mean by "deeb". But different cars have clutches with different characteristics, it doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with it.

- Ford Focus 1.8 TDDI was popping out of 5th gear now won't go into any gear! Is it Clutch or Gearbox? The car which is a 2002 was jumping out of 5th gear into neutral when travelling at 60mph. Now it won't go into any gear and I can only start the car with the clutch pedal pressed in and when I release the clutch pedal with the gear stick in neutral the car stalls. The gear stick will literally not go into any gear. I think I need to find a used gearbox and I think the clutch is fine. What do you think?
