Clutch & brake pedal adjustment

-

If the clutch is not engaging, the pedal feels too high or there’s too much freeplay, the clutch pedal’s stop can be adjusted from inside the footwell using 14mm spanners. The cable can also be adjusted at the gearbox. The brake pedal should have 1-6mm of freeplay with a height of 121.6-131.6mm. It can be adjusted by disconnect­ing and removing the brake light switch at the pedal, loosening the locknut on the servo pushrod then turning the adjuster until the pedal is at the correct position.
