Sortening Clutch Throw

Has anyone shortened the abnormally long clutch throw on the 2015 MINI?


Thanks


Joe

Test drove a 2015 Mini S and the engagement felt too close to the floor and the throw felt long compared to m 2012. Didn't like the clutch feel at all.

The clutch bump from Burger is not for an F56 as I quickly learned after buying and trying to install. The F56 uses a different setup behind the pedal.

Long throw on mine (3cyl F56) but engagement is at the right level--drove an S before it and the clutch grabbed just above the floor. Salesperson told me they were like that on the S models. Didn't make sense. My '12 was perfect in throw length and engagement.

I never found the travel or engagement point on mine to be an issue, but there is zero feel in that pedal.
