DJW 681 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) Sat in an Exige S Roadster today and was shocked at the effort required to depress the clutch vs my old Evora. Reminded me of my old 997 GT3 . So do I assume the clutch is different from the Evora even though same engine and gearbox ?

Neal H 899 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 I would say that my Roadster clutch is a bit lighter than my Evora was, but both are fairly heavy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bibs 11,383 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 I'vre driven 6-7 Exige V6's now and can't say I've noticed the clutch being heavy to be honest.

DJW 681 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Hmmm well this car (circa 8k miles) was definitely substantially heavier than my Evora was, with a bit of squeaking going on too. . I would guess double the effort which would make me question the clutch on this particular car. Thanks for confirmation anyway.I would say that my Roadster clutch is a bit lighter than my Evora was, but both are fairly heavy. Well I would say the Evora was half the effort than a 911 GT3, so confirms my suspicions something wasn't right. Will have to pop in Silverstone sometime and try their V6's for confirmation.

Bibs 11,383 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 I was going to suggest exactly that. At least that way you've a benchmark.

Trevsked 771 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 The clutch on my Exige is in my view light so like others feel perhaps the car you tried my need some attention. Trevor. Quote I'll get around to it at some point. Link to post Share on other sites
