Default Oh no, 1000 miles done and problems...

Got a 04 Sti and i've only covered 1100 miles and there's a problem with the clutch pedal / pedalbox. I don't know whether it's the pedal box or what, just wandered if anyone has heard/seen this before and it should surely be a warranty issue?

On releasing the clutch, just before the top, it seems like the pedal bends (hard to explain), certainly didn't do this before, but at that point the accerlerator moves as well. Gives a nasty feel in the pedals. Wifey also mentioned (in her best technical knowledge) there's something "weird" with the pedals.

Gonna contact the garage tomorrow.

I had this on a X plate Honda Accord SE

really weird as though the pedal is bending.

Honda couldn't find anything wrong, just had to live with it

Oh no!! You can't say that. I couldn't live with it TBH. It's a pain and you're right, it does feel like the pedal is bending. Ar man, my week has started well...

Check the 2 bolts holding the clutch pedal box to the slave cylinder. Also there is one bolt inside up the top. Clutch pedal box is seperate to the accelerator and brake.
