What are the reasons for the clutch of Tiggo 7 not rebounding?
2 Answers
The clutch of Tiggo 7 not rebounding could be caused by the following three reasons: the return spring of the clutch pedal is loose, there is air resistance in the oil circuit or the working cylinder is worn, leading to the pedal not returning, and insufficient return force of the clutch pedal spring. More related information is as follows: 1. Before upshifting, based on road and traffic conditions, smoothly press the accelerator pedal to gradually increase the vehicle speed. This process is called "charging". When the speed is suitable for shifting to a higher gear, immediately lift the accelerator pedal and press the clutch pedal to shift the gear lever to a higher gear; then, while lifting the clutch pedal, gradually press the accelerator pedal to keep the vehicle running smoothly. Depending on the situation, use the same method to shift to an even higher gear. 2. The key to smooth upshifting lies in the size of "charging". The "charging" distance should be determined by the level of the gear to be shifted. The higher the gear, the longer the "charging" distance. During "charging", the accelerator pedal should be pressed steadily and lifted quickly at medium speed. When upshifting, after shifting to a higher gear, quickly lift the clutch pedal to the semi-engagement position, pause slightly, and then slowly lift it to ensure smooth power transmission and avoid "lurching" after shifting.
I've dealt with many cases where the Tiggo 7 clutch pedal doesn't return. It could be an issue with the clutch master or slave cylinder—like oil seal leakage causing insufficient pressure, or air entering/blockage in the hydraulic line preventing rebound. Rusted pedal mechanisms or lack of lubrication are also common, especially in humid environments or after prolonged parking. Some owners reported similar failures due to broken springs or stuck connecting rods. First, check the clutch fluid level—if below MIN, promptly add dedicated brake fluid; if bubbles are detected, bleed the system. I always remind friends not to force-drive, as this wears clutch plates or even damages transmissions. Regularly inspect the system during maintenance and replace worn parts when necessary to avoid bigger troubles. Safety first—stop immediately for inspection if issues arise.
