Thanks for that! Is there anyway of adjusting it then or not? Gearbox is a bit notchy in 1st and reverse, I understand this could be a worn friction/pressure plate? Might have to replace this if can't adjust clutch.

As said, clutch is hydraulic and self adjusting.
Always worth bleeding in case you managed
to get some air in there.  :y
