Clutch Adjustment Issues!!
 
Hello, Everyone
Has anyone experienced any issues after adjusting your clutch pedal?
Please reply with:

1) How long has it been since you did it?
2) Miles put on your car after adjustment and total

- Thanks

No problems with mine. I set it to my liking shortly after getting the car home. That was 8 months and 12,000 miles ago.

Are you having issues?

I made mine a tad higher than the brake pedal - before that it was lower and I felt like I was killing the clutch which is why i raised it to the current position.
i think the first spot had 3k miles or so .. the new spot has .. 3k/4k miles
why?

I've been paying with the position for a while. Depending on the position; clutch vibrates a little more/feel when not being pressed. I also noticed speed drops a tad bit faster sometimes when no gas is being applied. It might just be me but I also feel that the car also pulls better when the pedal is higher. I fear clutch might be wearing down (guessing it will last 20k miles).

No issues here. I did it 8 months/about 16k miles ago.

Never needed to.

There is a little more feedback in the pedal, but you only feel it at the very top of the pedal throw. When you are not using the clutch, you shouldnt rest your foot on the pedal.

From my experience in other cars, the feedback is normal.

Adjusted pedal over the summer, around the end of July. Many miles since and no problems!
