Clutch Pedal Travel
I haven't driven the 951 in two weeks.
Suddenly I notice that I can press the clutch pedal down about an inch before the hydraulics engage at all. Is this normal? I may just be noticing something that has always been this way.

sounds normal, there should be some free play, when there is no play is when there is a problem

There's an adjustment in the FSM for this.

There should be .5 mm clearance between clutch push rod and master cylinder piston. This translates into approx 3 mm play in the pedal.

There is a bolt that can be undone and the freeplay can be adjusted. If this changes, though, I'd look into the master cylinder a little deeper.
