  9. Ok so car finally back on the road used it for 130 mile today and now I seem to have an issue with the clutch anyone experienced this before? Basicly I can push the clutch half way down and it does nothing but the clutch is only working on the bottom half but when released its returning to the half way point and I'm having to lift it with my foot to return it to normal height I have no idea how the clutch works on the z if it's wire or electronic just through I'd post on here first *https://vimeo.com/137624145 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
