A high bite point - usually means that a clutch is on the way out.
Is it slipping occasionaly at all?

Occasionaly not the case. E.G MK2 golf replace the auto cable with a manual one and the clutch bite point often seems to ride high.

No noticable slip on the clutch,perhaps i need to just get used to the car as all cars feel and drive very differently.Thanks for the reply.
