No I'm joking, it's well geased up. But it is the old type clutch pedal.

Later pedal with the over-centre spring is the simplest answer.
You’ll need the later 300Tdi-onwards pedal and pedal box, but they’re readily available. I swapped mine (1992 200Tdi) years ago, over time I wore that pedal box out and recently swapped in a whole brand new assembly.
Result is a beautifully smooth and - most importantly - consistent clutch pedal, compared to what had become a horrible jerky motion before. Nice and light too, but if you’re after an even lighter pedal then as noted above you can buy aftermarket over-centre springs which help further.

I'm going to give it a try, ong with a power spring, and maybe a servo.

I'm considering, if I can find one, buying a Disco 300tdi auto, and pull the engine and box out and drop that in.
