Inspection and Verification
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The vehicle should be road tested, if possible, to verify the customer concern. Some clutch conditions may be attributed to a misadjusted clutch pedal height, linkage, or shift mechanism. These should be checked and corrected prior to attempting major disassembly procedures. Verify that the transaxle is filled to the correct level with the specified lubricant. Refer to MANUAL TRANSAXLE-TRANSMISSION .
