I’m at a bit of a loss with this, I’ve had the 500X 1.6 diesel 66 reg for three weeks and driven it for 2 weeks on off as it’s been in at the dealership for some jobs.
I’m having a lot of difficulty with the clutch pedal, the clutch pedal is very high up the highest of all the three pedals. Now I’ve tried to get comfortable but it’s so high and also heavy to press I literally have a ache ankle, calf cramp and pain up the leg trying to just drive a short 10 mintier ride in town.
It’s hard to stop start drive and have the left foot hovering over the pedal as the ankle is at right angles it soon becomes painful along with the rest of the leg.
I’ve tried the seat higher, lower, closer to pedals, lower down and further back and nothing changes this.
I’ve spoken with the fearless hip who say they can’t adjust a clutch for the stiffness or height. I’ve had a friend try driving it tonight and straight away he said the problem is the pedal is so high when pressing and then releasing the pedal your heel comes off the Florida with the pedal being high and the foot is suspended mid air just resting on the pedal.
Surely I cannot be the only one struggling with this if it’s a characteristic of the car, are the pedals on all 500x set at different levels.
I’ve had to say to the dealership I cannot possibly drive it like this.
And thoughts guys would be helpful
