So after all the software upgrades... Who's car is still stalling?

Raise your hand!

Oh, our AC went out this weekend. Car's at its home away from home again. Since the dealer has our car so much, maybe he should be splitting the payments with me.

Some things about British car ownership never change.....

Clutch Problems

I found out about the need to push the clutch pedal all the way to the floor in my test drive. I have rather short legs and, when I have the seat in a comfortable position, I have real trouble pushing the clutch all the way in.

Now that I've had my '05 MCS for several months, I'm getting used to it. However, I'd still like very much to find some way to not have to push the clutch so far in or to extend the clutch pedal so that I can put the seat in a comfortable position.

Any thoughts?

My 04 MCS has v39 and it stalled the other night. I was trying to enter my complex and was halfway through my gate when it stalled. Had to start her up quick before the gate started closing. Probably only the second time its fully stalled, it tends to just sputter and threathen alot.

Plus if you have the car idle with the hood open it sounds something terrible hehe. Had the same problem with my SVT Focus....
