Hi David I don't know much about these modern mogs,mine is a 1968 4/4. Is the clutch hydraulic and does the pedal position change when pumped,-if so could be the slave cylinder seals. With such low mileage has the brake/clutch fluid been changed recently. If it is the same lay out as mine,which I guess it will be, it will be an engine out job to do the clutch but I was advised that it was possible to get at the clutch by moving the gearbox back,I could not do it on mine or see how. I'm just putting mine back together after an engine/gearbox out for a gearbox bearing repair. Radiator and cowl next followed by interior if the weather holds up, oh for a double garage or even a large single that I could get the car in and work on not just push in and close the door. Good luck John Hampshire

I have a 1998 4-4 with 30,000 miles on the clock. I took the Mog out today and noticed the clutch pedal travel seemed to be getting longer and longer, or to be more precise the take up of the clutch is very close to the floor. I guess it must be new clutch time, however in the past with other vehicles a slipping clutch was the sign of a worn out clutch and not pedal travel. That said, I had to replace the clutch on the Defender some time ago and if I recall that was also pedal travel rather than slipping. So a few questions, do the symptoms suggest a new clutch and is it an engine out job or can it be tackled from underneath? I have checked the fluid levels are they are fine.
