The cable is self adjusting, it usually adjusts itself when you take your foot off the pedal. If you think it has an issue step on the clutch then open the hood, you should be able to pull up on the black plastic housing of the cable one time it will have space between the bracket and the cable housing. If you try to pull up on it again it will be stuck but you can step on the clutch and then see it pull up again.

If you are having other problems like you have allowed the cable to expand while doing a repair, then I believe you will need a new one as I have never gotten one to adjust back in after it extends all the way to the end of its limit.

How do you adjust clutch cable on golf 97?

The 97 usually has a clutch cable that is self-adjusting. This cable usually gets replaced when a new clutch is installed, as it is difficult to un-adjust it once it adjusts for clutch wear. Some enthusiasts fit their car with the old-style manual adjusting clutch cable, in a belief that is helps clutch feel and prolongs clutch life. The clutch cable itself is between the motor and the battery, a big black thing that hooks into the transmission's front clutch release lever. IF you have a friend push the clutch in and out, you can easily see it operate if you're looking under the hood.

A 1997 Ford Mustang has a CABLE OPERATED CLUTCH If you want to adjust the clutch - without the engine running put your transmission in first gear - GENTLY pull the clutch pedal UP until it stops - SLOWLY push the clutch pedal DOWN ( if the clutch needed adjusting you should hear a click , that's done every 5,000 to 6,000 MILES )
