Hey guys,
I am having issues putting my car into gear in the morning, clutch pedal is also very short in the mornings when I start the car. Basically I have to start the car with it in gear to get started. Anyone else have this problem? Car is Civic Sport 2008 with 100k on the dial. Any suggestions or ideas would be great, Thanks.

Funny because I have this same problem last week as well. It fixed itself for a few days then it came back :( Help!

But keep in mind that ...

"What this did was increase the travel of the rod, pushing on the Master Cylinder more; and therefore getting the clutch out a little more!


The clutch will feel very different after the adjustment but you will get used to it. It is VERY important to remember to never rest your foot on the clutch, now especially, because it is more sensitive to short travel now."
