| guys i understand that lots of tech is available. but is it all tried and tested. also is it something that company approves for.
clutch is very crucial part in the engine. i would not rather fiddle with it. i may be sounding wierd or orthodox but this is what i really feel.
i have used cars with hydraulic clutch system and really not a big difference between wired an hydraulic.
i have been through a situation where the hydraulic clutch has failed in a running car without any warning. In traffic it becomes really risky situation to handle the machine whose clutch has failed. If it was wired i would have either replaced the wire or tightened it or something of that sort with some local mechanic asking him to do what i would have felt best to do in those circumstances.
though i do not say that hydraulic clutch is useless. it was the cars fault as the clutch system had grown quite old and needed a complete change. The part which controls how much fluid to pass broke and local mechanic cant replace anything in that unless some experts perform the task. Bigger headache in that engine was to be able to reach to that part first the engine has to be lifted. So lots of issues. It was a Mitsubishi Gallant Diesel.
as far as i understand logan's one of the purposes is to be easy to be repaired. |

| I wish if I could get hydraulic clutch system from Logan MCV, as its made for Logan and working. Well I am not agree that hyraulics fail such a way, if this then most of the car mechanics will fail, becuase hydraulics are the building blocks of a car. You have a hydraulic breaks, accl, ABS, power steering. If clutch can fail then break also, assume a situation. Guys hydraulics probably the most trusted and powerful technology developed and yes about wires or cable clutch, you may have ad earlier experience with bikes and sccoters where cable tends to break very easily, and yes it can also freeze, loose, harden, broken anything. The only purpose of not putting a hydraulic clutch is just simple cost cutting only. And yes we are here talking about a clutch for Diesel cars only not the petrol once. petrol once are very lighter than D once. |

|  Yes the MCV has a Hydraulic clutch but it would be one BIG job to fit it In fact i bet the master cylinder for the clutch is also the same as the master brake cylinder or on the same assembly this is normal practise The Photo was given to US froma very friendly DACIA LOGAN FORUM FROM GERMANY |

| Hi,
The clutch of my car was giving trouble for some time. Same problem, very hard and difficult to operate. Just got the cable replaced under warranty. Now the same has become very smooth.
Regards, Kaustuv. |

| How much is the clutch cable costing these days ? As the car is out of warranty for most of the old users i am sure they will charge for changing the same. |

| @ Dushie If I can recollect properly it was about 1600 for the clutch cable. Am not 100% confident of the figure though. |

| http://www.autoclutchindia.in/ Its kind of an auto gear car. The clutch cable in our Logan is coupled with an extra arm fitted with an ECM that studies when you need to change the gear and alerts you. Our stock Gear knob is replaced with their Gear knob which has a thumb sensor that acts like the clutch and lets you change the gear as soon as you touch it. 2 year unlimited kms warranty The issue is the cost.. About 30 K +
