    good day mga bosing, ano po problema ng clutch system ng sentra FE ko kasi matigas sya apakan at parang may sumasalat pag ipapasok sa 2nd gear? meron din pong shock shift pag bitaw ng accelarator pedal hindi po sya smooth shifting. sabi po ng tito ko baka daw di genuine parts yung nilagay sa clutch parts kaya daw matigas, any advice po mga sir? ano po dapat palitan or iadjust? or need lang po ba ng lubricant? sentra Fe po yung oto at nakuha ko lang po 2nd hand, thanks

    The hard clutch pedal could be sign that the clutch cable needs to be either lubricated or replaced. Also possible the cable used was a "replacement" cable.

    The jerky clutch might mean the clutch needs to be broken in (break-in for a few hundred kilometers) for smoother engagement.

    thank you sir, i will try to put some greasing or lubrication to the cable clutch but do you think sir there is nothing wrong inside the clutch assembly? like release bearing or pressure plate to make it more lighter? by the way sir, is it ok to put singer oil for the cable?

    thanks sir, subukan kong kalasin yung cable baka nga na bent yung wire nya kasi pag inaapakan ko may tumutunog mismo sa cable parang di sya free. parang na twitwist. hope yun nga ang cause. di ko pa kasi maalis kasi nagamit ko pa yung oto. will get you an update pag na greasan ko na at naibalik, thanks again

    mga bosing, ok na clutch pedal ko ang lambot na, what I did is to disconnect the entire cable from the pedal. ang hirap lang umilalim sa floor, ang hirap matanggal yung cable unless alisin yung buong pedal, napansin ko na tuyong tuyo yung grease ng cable kahit hilahin ko ang tigas gumalaw. then i put some wd40 until mag flow sya from top to bottom holding the cable vertically then try koi push and pull until I notice na madali ng hilahin back and forth. so nung binalik ko na, ang lambot na ng pedal parang naka hydro hehe. thanks po sa mga advice nyo. akala ko release bearing na or clutch plate na, thank you again and more power to all

    WD40 is only a temporary fix. It will soon dry up in a few days. You will need to use an oil that will not evaporate or dry up quickly.

    tama si ghosthunter. mangyayari nyan every now and then mo kakalasin yung cable para lagyan ng wd40. try mo yung mga "singer" brand na pang makina, this should last a little bit longer. i also tried squeezing in grease through the small openings on the ends of the cable sleeve before, it worked fine with my FE until the day i sold it.

    sir napapansin ko nga medyo tumitigas nanaman yung clutch ko. grasa ata talaga ang nilalagay kaso ang hirap naman lagyan from end to end. try ko nalang uli singer oil kahiti disconnect ko nalang yung isang end sa engine siguro at dun ko nalang patuluin ng oil.
