This video helped me heaps! My accord euro had grinding issues when going into reverse and hard to go into first gear occasionally, turns out the clutch wasnt fully disengaged and following the video solved all my problems and potentially saved me money. Anyone else experiencing this should give this a try. Thanks a lot!
Exactly! Why haven't I come across this video sooner. I kept wondering why my clutch travels so damn far! Been like a leg workout for the past year since I had the car. Gonna have to do this real soon
Thanks for such a clear and easy to follow video. My clutch had always been grabbing really aggressive and it would jerk the car so much I thought it was because it was a stage 2 clutch but after doing what you did my clutch engages so perfect and its so easy to drive from a stop now.
After changing my clutch and slave cylinder I had so much free play I could barely get it into gear. Thanks for the video! After adjusting it shifts great now!
I couldn't twist the clutch rod at first by hand, but luckily some light over twist with the wrench on the adjustment nut loosened it up. And thanks to this adjustment I noticed the clutch stop pad had practically disintegrated.
i was sitting under my friends 3000gt and i was like why’s the pushrod spinning 😭 come to find out after one search and finding this video it’s supposed to spin out of the fork and not the master cylinder 😂 preciate it g 🙌
Excelent video. However, it is important to have a minimum freeplay to prevent the release bearing from constantly pressing on diaphragm springs and cause clutch slippage. I guess freeplay varies from models but on mine, Honda recommends freeplay between 8mm and 18mm
Thank you. A lot of videos on UA-cam aren’t that clear (I’m not an expert or a full on enthusiastic, more like a newbie) and this explained it perfectly. Also, a lot of the old forums have dead links and photos. No help at all ):
Fantastic video! I just bought an s2000 and the free play had me a little concerned, as my Civic SI has none (same pedals). Glad it know it’s common and easily adjusted!
Thank you for this guide man. I had my master cylinder and slave replaced on my Honda Civic 2006 FD. But I noticed the clutch bite point is way too low. Did this and my bite point is now at my sweet spot.
I had this problem and I thought damn there goes my $ until I saw this video and I fixed it it under 5 min thanks to this video. Clutch even drives better considering it was low on fluid. Thanks man!!! Awesome stuff.
UA-cam algorithm is on point. Opened up the app to find a video about this exact same thing for my ap1 and it was on the front page. Didn't even have to search😅
Epic video. Thankyou very much. I have just bought an AP1 and noticed a very small drip on the back of the clutch pedal. I believe it may well be the master cylinder leaking after seeing this!
Thanks for the video. My S2000 is fine but i had to replace the slave/master on the Tacoma and now i know the way of doing it. Makes a lot more sense. Thanks for the video.
should you be able to do a valve adjustment. I've seen a few but like I said before none as discribte as your videos. thanks and keep up the solid work
Farther away from the floor actually. When you turn the rod clockwise you are actually extending it further into the clutch master master so you will feel the bite towards sooner, towards the top of the pedal.
Thank you for that explanation. So what is the ideal position? I know it varies person to person but would the general area be for the bite to be closer to the floor or as far as the top of the pedal possible?
I did the fix and I can say my clutch pedal feels less stiff than it used to be. The engagement point is a bit higher but smoother. 110k miles and I think this fix was overdue for my car. thanks agai!
+Darren Walsh I promise I will go into more detail about this soon. General idea is keeping the car as stock as possible. I've had the K&N I take on two S2000s already so in the event that I do something it will be something different. I mostly want to spend my money on consumables and seat time. Would love to do some tire, brake, and mod reviews.
+rrplymouth70 That is a pretty tall order ha. I mainly need a car that needs a clutch replaced. Hopefully my aftermarket clutch blows up soon. I have done the job twice before tho so it wouldn't be a problem.
My honda civic freeplay seems to increase and decrease on it's own depending on driving style. For example. I would have the amount of freeplay as you showed in the beginning under normal driving conditions and then when I am needing to hold the clutch pedal down halfway for longer e.g. parking or moving in slow traffic, I find that the freeplay gets extra sloppy and ends up being almost halfway down before feeling pressure and then at some point during the rest of the drive it automatically readjusts itself to what it was before. So would adjusting it like shown in the video be any help?
With a new clutch adjusting like in the video makes the engagement at the very top of the pedal. Is it ok to adjust so there’s a lot more pedal play so it engages more about 1/2 pedal travel?
Yes. But not adjusted too much where at the bottom of the pedal travel, your car is still slipping and causing the car to move. But if you adjusted that much, your bite point wouldn't be at the middle of the total pedal travel. What I find is that the bite point IS AT THE TOP OF THE PEDAL TRAVEL (of the tension part). Meaning if you adjusted the clutch to have more slop at the top...that Slop (freeplay) isn't part of the "tension part". Your bite point is still towards the top of the tension part.
so i just change my new clutch to act/oem combo... after loosing the nut i cant even move the rod by hand.. does that meant its already push all the way out?and my clutch still grabs too low
Hi! Very late comment but I'm watching this to do this on my 8th civic si that i got a new cmc for. It's an exedy cmc from rock auto and for some reason the rod is really hard to turn. I then took it out of the car and tried to turn it by hand bit its so hard, when i do turn it, I dont see anything change. Pushing the rod in helps a little but in the car with it connected to the pedal its almost impossible.
Hey man awesome video, I’m having trouble rotating the clutch master cylinder rod counter clock wise. Do you know why or how I could get it to loosen up.

I've read some wires in the trunk are wrapped too tightly from factory and end up breaking. I should really get on it but I'm lazy.
after replacing the master and slave cylinders because the master was leaking - I'm noticing that the engagement/disengagement all happens at the very top of pedal travel - within maybe the first inch. It didn't seem to be so high or such a short amount of pedal travel before. Does this suggest that the clutch is almost gone, even though mileage is barely 45000?
My vw touran has this loose freeplay on clutch pedal, i always thought it was broken or smth. i changed the clutch and flywheel and now the bitting point is so high my dad was having trouble on uphill 1st gear. so all i should do is what you did on your video and adjust it to my preference? (our*) xD
Would this concept work on my 8th Gen ? This video actually explains a lot better than all the other videos I found for an Si but I notice that the idea is generally the same.
on my 95 Civic, when I followed your instructions the clutch bits rather high (almost at the top). Adjusting it down also lowered the pedal height. I also noticed a bit of slop (looser than the free-play) while adjusting. Should I remove the slop?
@@klemenzfreyr2106 unfortunately no. I've watched every video on YT, adjusted it like 10 times and could not get it right. Pls. let me know if you have a solution. thank you!
I bought a new car, th e clutch peddle free play is normal but the peddle is very tight at the clutch point. I have tested other cars of same model, their clutch is not tight. What should i do, where is the problem??
How do I make my engagement/bite point lower? My clutch has a bit of play but the bite point is already at the top. I can confirm the clutch is not worn at all.
What up @DIYGuys , I have a 2004 ap2 with 45k miles. i have a "clunky-ness", almost a slight grind going from 1st to 2nd. Mostly when the car is cold but it happens occasionally after it is warmed up as well. After spending some time on s2ki, I found this forum that spoke about a the same issues I had with this adjustment being the fix. Just bled the clutch and regreased the shifter so i can rule those out. My question to you is did you notice an clunky shifting or grinding prior to make the adjustment in this video? by the way, I am also located in the bay and would love to meet up sometime!
Hey Zaahid! I think that the adjustment can definitely remove some grinding during shifting. I'm in Fremont. Hit me up on instagram @diyguystv and we can meet up.
Thanks for the video .. I always curious ... When you press clutch paddle.. you press straight down .. but what if sometimes you are moving your left leg from the resting plate and step on kind of from side and the motion is like instead of pressing it straight down but like 45 degree ... I know the paddle will still go down .. but will that do any damage to the paddle? Thanks
Hi! Great video but I cant turn around the master cylinder rod... I have no free play at all right now and the problem is that my clutch is sliding. It´s a new clutch and new fly wheel. The engine was out and everything is very clean and nice inside so I suspect the lack of free play.. or could it be something else ? Hope for some advice. Thanks!
sir can we replaced clutch master with another one not same i mean another one for another car let's we suppose that we can't get the same clutch master cylinder?
I have done this to my s2k for some time now. No issues. However I did it when the car was cold. Should this be done when the clutch fluid is warm, was told the fluid expands. In fact what I noticed is my clutch work and the car is much smoother shifting after a run on the high way as compared to before
My car has hydrualic clutch My clutch catch point has changed suddenly, now it's pretty high I have take my foot all the way off to engage. But no clutch worn issues This is crazy what could be the issue? Can anyone help
You can potentially ride the clutch, similar to slightly pressing the clutch pedal at all times. Meaning your friction disk will not be as tightly clamped to the flywheel and this can lead to premature wear of the friction disc.
Yes I did that and that’s exactly what happened. I loosened it again and the clutch no longer slips/disengages, but I feel the pedal get tighter as I use it and also noticed the fluid is getting dark rather quickly. (I changed the master and slave cylinders 2 weeks ago). Did I break the master cylinder by over tightening it?
my clutch's biting point is already very high and there is a considerable amount of free play in the pedal. doing this to limit the free play will raise my bite point even higher??? I want no free play and low bite point :( help please
I'm having an issue with breaking the 12mm locknut free, when doing so the cmc push rod spins with the locknut.

Did you ever have the "clunk" or "grind" when going from 1st to 2nd gear when cold? or when first moving the car
Great explanation. So it's okay for the clutch cylinder rod to move slightly as the free play.
Yep, there will always be a little bit of free play

Thank you for that explanation. So what is the ideal position? I know it varies person to person but would the general area be for the bite to be closer to the floor or as far as the top of the pedal possible?
I prefer close to the top because it means the clutch is disengaged sooner. I feel like this translates into less gear grinds and smoother shifts.
Diy guys please clarify this youre saying two different things
Yeah clutch terminology is confusing. What I mean is the friction disc separates from the flywheel sooner.
Loosen the lock nut...... rounded it first go! No more adjustment for me lol. Shoulda cracked it whilst the new master cylinder was off the car.
Man, I ended up rounding the nut a bit, are you turning the right way in this video? I see you turning counter clockwise
very nice. I feel my freeplay is quite loose so I'll take a look at it now!

It does sound like there is absolutely no free play. I would back it off until you get some free play.

i mean another one for another car let's we suppose that we can't get the same clutch master cylinder?
Not from a different model no b
which way allow you to lower the bite point on which the clutch engages? clock wise or counter?
Counter clockwise will lower the note point.
I have done this to my s2k for some time now. No issues. However I did it when the car was cold. Should this be done when the clutch fluid is warm, was told the fluid expands. In fact what I noticed is my clutch work and the car is much smoother shifting after a run on the high way as compared to before
Doesn’t matter
I replaced my cmc and slave, bleed the line but still
No pressure on my pedal what could it be? And will this adjust help for a dead pedal?
I have heard that bench bleeding the master cylinder can help in this case. Also, have you tried doing a two person bleed?
what if the rod doesn’t budge even after loosening the lock nut?
figured it out! had to push and hold the pedal in a bit until it hit the pressure point to be able to rotate the rod
Hello
Can’t rotate push rod that easy, is hard to spin with my fingers
Please help
Break is loose with vice grips if necessary.
i can’t seem to be able to unbolt the nut. and it’s a little hard to get to. any suggestions??
You can use a rubber mallet to help. Just gotta make sure you’re going lefty loosey.

This is crazy what could be the issue?
Can anyone help
If it’s not a Honda S2000 I can’t really provide any advice
Any chance of you knowing how to diagnose or, calibrate even, the EPS? My power steering is off after doing tie rods
No experience sorry.
What happens if you over tighten the rod past the first point of slight resistance?
You can potentially ride the clutch, similar to slightly pressing the clutch pedal at all times.
Meaning your friction disk will not be as tightly clamped to the flywheel and this can lead to premature wear of the friction disc.
Yes I did that and that’s exactly what happened. I loosened it again and the clutch no longer slips/disengages, but I feel the pedal get tighter as I use it and also noticed the fluid is getting dark rather quickly.

What if I adjust it to tight will that cause my clutch to start slipping alittle
Yep.
