You'll probably think I'm an idiot by the end of this but here goes. I recently passed my driving test (Friday) so I have started driving my car a lot more, in my instructors car the clutch was very light, I'm assuming it was modified, so while I was learning it was very difficult to drive my car because of the difference. I find it very hard to find the bite in my car because of how stiff the clutch is, also when changing from 1st to 2nd it is quite difficult because the clutch almost seems to stick and I have move my foot incredibly slowly when releasing it. Two of my friends tested it and they said the same thing; it was incredibly heavy, is this normal?

Hi,if your car was bought new, then it needs some time to work and go lighter.
If you bought it second-hand,change the lubricant of the gearbox,if this doesn't fix the problem.....Well, brace yourselves and your pockets.....
