Andy,

A high biting point for the clutch does not necessarily mean that you need a new clutch, you might just need some adjustment done to it. How long have you had this problem for and when was the last servicing done? If it's been a while, then you are better off taking your car to the garage so that a mechanic can have a closet look at your clutch and advise you accordingly.

I have recently had a new clutch fitted to my 06 Fiesta, due to the old one dragging causing difficulty in engaging gears. Prior to the new clutch, the pedal action was very heavy it is now very light is this normal? Also since having the new clutch there is a crunchy feeling when chaging gears. It is not easy to get a smooth change. The garage that did the clutch tell me it is the symptom of the gearbox wearing, is this right on a 3 year old 23000 miles car? If so is the only option a new or recon gearbox?
