Default Clutch Adjustment

Anyone know how to adjust the clutch or have a link a how-to..

Mine doesn't seem to be disangaging all the way when I press the pedal to the floor...

Thanks

There is no adjustment on this clutch, unless you have an aftermarket clutch master cylinder. Your clutch may be wearing out which may be causing your engagement problem. Jimmy

left the car there and the machinic called me the next day saying he thinks it is the master. I was like didn't you put a Z06 one in when I had my clutch done.. he said no.. I was pissed.. because he was supposed too..

so another 100 later for a Z06 master and the car is running great again...
