Clutch floor pad / cushion?
I'm wondering if there's supposed to be some kind of foam or pad behind the clutch pedal to cushion it on the floor?
After 30k miles I noticed that my clutch pedal to the floor felt uncomfortable and made creaks against the floor/firewall or whatever it rubs against, checked behind the pedal assembly and there was a worn adhesive strip there. Any ideas thanks. |

In another thread they talked about putting one of those stick on felt chair/table leg pads on the floorboard. Curious, with such a high release point on the clutch, why are some people slamming it into the floorboard ... ?? humfrz |

That's easy to read in my head. Then I tried to say it out loud.

There's supposed to be a rubber stop which prevents what you're hearing. It fits into a hole in the metal piece the clutch arm hits when fully pressed (get down there with a flashlight and watch as you press the clutch in with your hand). If you don't see one there anymore (and rather you see a hole), yours probably broke in half and fell on the floor never to be seen again. Mine broke in half too and I noticed it when I was down there inspecting the clutch spring.
You can replace it with just about anything rubber or felt that you can find laying around with an adhesive back. As mentioned above, @Ultramaroon found chair leg pads to be a great replacement. Since I didn't have any and cbf to go get some I used a cut piece of rubber drawer liner and 3M tape. Let me know if you want a picture. |

Nothing frustrates me more than trying to twist myself into the footwell to try and do anything worthwhile under there. Sure fire way to get me cussing up a storm within 30 seconds.

However, a few months ago, our dishwasher was leaking (out from underneath the center). So, I called the local, friendly, Sears service man and he came out and replaced some parts so it don't leak no more ........ then I took a nap ..... exhausted from watching him ....... humfrz |
