please explain what a clutch stop is.

!Xoible · 04-25-2008, 06:17 PM

like a rubber block, or whatever it is they install to prevent you from pushing the clutch all the way in. the point is to allow u to disengage/engage the gear without going all the way to the bottom. for "performance". i believe that's what it is

yup - most BMW clutch pedals have a lot of extra travel to the pedal- you can reduce that and it improves shift time and feel.

You can make one from homedepot parts for less than $1.00

Maybe we can determine the measurments. It's really to make one.

sayemthree · 04-28-2008, 12:15 AM

actually the last two I made for "free" out of the parts bins in my garage.

I looked yesterday, and there isn't a plastic pad screwed in like on previous generations, so there's no where for a clutch stop. Plus I've tried not pushing the pedal all the way back when shifting and it grinds a little, so I think BMW has put the least amount of travel in as possible.
