I recently replaced the clutch releas bearing and clutth on my 110 TD5. Everything seemed to go back together OK but I'm having trouble engaging any gears.

I have bled the clutch fluid and the clutch has pressure but it will not let me get fully into gear.

When I do depress the clutch and push the gear lever toward a gear the car does rock foward as if something is trying to engage.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Try pumping pedal=still air, failing that
can adjust it at clutch master cylinder end.

When you bleed these clutches it still takes a couple of days for the clutch to "self bleed" itself - the poor pipework design means that air gets trapped high on the circuit and it can take a bit of time for all the air to fully bleed out.
