Is it possible for a reasonable competent DIY mechanic to do a manual adjustment of the clutch on a Peugeot 308 HDi. Mine is showing early signs of the clutch slipping, I have a new car being delivered in 5 - 7 weeks and I'm trying to avoid the expense of a clutch replacement in the interim. I'm a low mileage driver but don't relish the prospect of being immobile in the interim.

If the clutch is slipping then you need a new one.

If you drive it gently and don't allow the clutch to slip it could go on for a considerable mileage.

Your peugeot should have a dual mass flywheel. If that.s the case, the presure plate is certeinly auto ajustable mening is ajusts its self as the clutch wears out, keepind a constant feel of it through its full life of use, untill it worn past the point of use.

If your clutch is slipping then you need a new one.

Another thing to mention is that in all hidraulic operated clutches you do not have the posibility of making ajustments
