sounds like you never fitte dit right at the bulkhead. Its a tricky one.
As for warrenty nope its a fitting fault. |

ok whatever. 8 inches from the pedal is where it goes through the bulkhead and where they snap when its a fitting fault. I replace them quite a lot. |

well lately not often tbh as they are all done around here now!
Dunno must have done over 100 on the 19 abotu 20/30 on the clio which is even fooking worse.
if you can blag it then good stuff.
You need to get the tags clippe dinto the bulkhead fully, this is a pain in the arse, then the 1st clip on the bulkhead, depending on the cable version either clip it in or leave it uncliped. If it has the big ring before the clip clip it in, if it has it ont he clip or after leave it loose. |

bit weights there to damper harmonic vibrations to the pedal.
Load of pish, you don't need it. On later cables it never came with them there is a weight thats put on between the box and fork with a grub screw. |
