Default NEED HELP!!!

I recently purchased a b5 2.8 quattro. For the past couple days I have been putting up with the clutch being very very high, but now I'm FED UP!!! I would like to know if anyone could give me some tips or a guideline on how to lower the clutch pedal or if it is even an easy fix or what not. I thank you in advanced....

Deal with it... period. All audi/VW clutches engage high... put the seat farther back if it REALLY bugs you.

Try a search too...

it could be that your clutch is on its way out if its really that high. most audi clutches engage high.. so i dunno.

my clutch pedal is just a tad bit higher than my break pedal and my clutch seems to have good grip... is there anyway to just lower the clutch pedal itself?

i think you are stuck with clutch pedal height...and i think the only way to change the height it engages at is different clutch/flywheel
