Peugeot 307 Clutch issue

[Barry]

Hey Guys. I have an issue with my clutch pedal (manual transmission). It feels lighter than it used to and if you press it down hard there is a slight vibration and noise. What do you think that might be?

First of all you need to check your transmission oil to make sure you have enough oil to see If you don’t have a oil leak. You might try to add Lucas transmission oil conditioner to help shifting.
If the oil is fine, you might check this potential problem : Ptential problems. Some of is problem are cost repair for a flywheel. But anyway I will put Lucas Transmission Fixanyway because transmission repair cost a lot.

is the clutch reservoir full?

[Barry]

There is transmission oil in the reservoir. It’s at the top level marking, so no leak

[college man]

is it transmission oil or brake fluid. usually dot 3

[Barry]

Brake/Clutch fluid. It’s a combi reservoir.

[Mathieu]

What is a combi reservoir ?

[Barry]

The reservoir houses both the brake and clutch fluid

It doesn’t sound like a clutch hydraulics are the issue. It sounds more like something in the clutch assembly itself. You may need to remove the transmission and inspect it. Something else to consider is the thrust bearings. This video can better explain that.
