I know ive somewhat brought it up but never got really into this. I have an 05 GT and the clutch is extremely heavy, wayyy heavier than my friends 06. I was wondering if there is anyone else who has had this problem and if there is a fix for it. and when i say heavy i really mean heavy. I looked down at where the clutch meets the floorboard and i was wondering if that little pump is gone bad or something (i dont know the name of it)?

 

Is it an aftermarket clutch? Most aftermarket clutches will require more pedal pressure due to the extra spring force provided by the pressure plate. Mine is at least 3 or 4 times as hard to push as a stock clutch. You will get use to it.

 

no its the same clutch that came on the car.

 

you might have a bad pressure plate. Take it to a tranny shop and have a pro take it for a spin.

 

Someething definately isn't right.

 

I have an extended warranty... do i even wanna go to Ford they will try to keep my car for like a week lol... should i go to a transmission shop first or just go to ford and be like feel the difference between any other used 05 you have and my 05? They tried to tell me it was fine once.

 

I have the same problem.. the clutch is my car is WAY harder than my friends 08

 

well if i get it fixed ill let you know what is was, i think its a pain in the ***! Ive driven several transmissions and damn this thing is heavy. My girlfriends miata transmission is like air compared to my stang

 

My 2005 clutch was way stiffer than the 2007. It was like a tractor clutch from a 1947 Ford. The 2007 was so much lighter i almost pushed it thru the floor the first time i got in the car.

I think they just had very stiff ones in the '05 models and changed some things in the later models.

 

well sheit,they need to change mine, its a pain in the *** man, my friend has an 06 and the clutch is so much lighter. im jealous. I really think something is wrong though, i have gotten into another 05 and it seemed alot better... i have bad luck
