Can't get into any gear from a stop once car is warmed up - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Not that it's the same issue.

But I made the mistake of doing the clutch pedal adjustment while the car was warm (late fall).

It was absolutely fantastic the pedal felt amazing.

Till later on that night and a cold start after the car had been off long enough to fully get cold, a couple hours from home.

Could barely get it into any gears, just barely got going and moving on the highway.

The next morning the amazing pedal feel was adjusted out.

WOW kudos to Evasive. You need to buy those guys lunch or a couple 12-packs for the whole crew!

Nice to see that companies paid for your mistake in clutch adjustment.

Did the OP ever actually say he had adjusted the pedal?

I thought he posted he had in the ACT/Exedy thread, but I looked and he didn't. The fact that the issue only happened when warm and with multiple clutches leads me to believe this was his issue all along.

Yes Evasive said they had adjusted it but I don't know for sure.
