Wobbly clutch pedal
Went for a drive today, and everything was going well... then my clutch pedal suddenly sprung forward and was vibrating quite a lot...
It doesn't vibrate violently all of the time, only at low-ish revs (like doing 40-45 in 4th), anything higher or lower and it is fine and doesn't wobble, and in neutral it is OK.
Also, when I went around a left hand bend, it stopped, regardless of speed or gear.
I did notice, that engaging second is a bit tricky when going around a corner, but this has been like that since I bought the car (i haven't got around to playing with the linkage yet)
Does anyone have any ideas on what the issue could be?
Thanks,

Good call - will have to get it up on a jack and take a looksie.
Took the ol' boy to a local garage for an MOT and for them to look at it...they didn't even bother with that, took it for a 10 mile joy ride then had the added fun of failing the MOT!

Re: Wobbly clutch pedal
Apparently my suspension mounting is missing on one side, and heavily corroded on another...chaffed brake pipe (which is itsn't - varified by another garage)
Getting it fixed up this weekend so will hopefully be back on the road by end of next week
