996 Clutch Adjustment

Hello,

Anyone ever have a problem with the manual clutch system on the 996 causing you to really press down progressively harder in order to get the starter to engage? Over the last few occasions that I have driven my 01 996 I've been really pushing the clutch pedal before she'll start, any adjustments I need to make ? Thanks.

Sounds like the switch is on its way out......just replace it, pretty common occurrence.
you can do it in about 2 minutes....

It takes 2 minutes but what a painful 2 minutes on your back, ass halfway in the seat and your body hanging out over the door sill. If you have a bad back, beware.
