clutch hieght adjustment discussion
im new to this car and wanted to learn more about it.
so lets first talk about the clutch adjustment problem.
i have done searches on this subject and not much is said about it other than it cant be adjusted.
well everything can be adjusted but one needs to know how it works.
im talking about the mazda 3 2006 wagon.
so have anyone tried to adjust this yet.
i have not taken a look yet so i dont know what im getting into.

there are many hydraulic clutched cars that can be adjusted. so hydraulic should not be the reason there is no adjustments.
i know other cars there are a screw or some sort of a metal shaft that can be turned to lower it. when i looked under the drivers foot well, it looked plastic. i have not looked under the engine bay yet.

the concern is not that its too low, its too high.

Second why would you want to lower the pedal height if your really tall maybe you should consider a bigger car.
Third I think he ment if you don't like the car he'll take it off your hands,you know for free haha.......

if you think that the pedal releases too high, then you must be too tall for this car, ive driven hydro clutches b4 and this by far the lowest and easiest to drive, again if you want to convert to an auto ill be happy to swap ya

no thanks. stick is way funner.
i called around and found out that there is an adjustment but they wont tell me how its done.
so the good news is that it IS possible to adjust the clutch pedal height.
they didnt want to give out information because that means i wont be going there for them to work on the clutch pedal adjustment.

i would like to know who you talked to cuz im looking at the factory repair manual right now, and there is no range where adjustments are allowed, nor is there even a section to even tell the technician how to make adjustments, the manual is current up to 2006 models

I(and others) have this problem: the clutch engages too high, and there is no adjustment. Mine starts to engage at 3" off the floor and it is awkward to do it smoothly. There is a plastic rod between the pedal and the hydraulic unit, of course unadjustable. There is also no adjustment at the clutch arm where it goes into the bellhousing. I have found that if you can move the seat back(while at the same time still comfortably shifting, braking, etc.) it is not as bad.
