Message Hey guys, I have a low mileage, ~5k miles,clutch that I adjusted per specialty z instructions and bled. The engagement point has always been just about a half inch from fully released pedal. Now it is suddenly slipping under any load more than idle. I think it must have been slipping under heavy load before and I just didn't know it. I have now adjusted the pedal rod inward so that the pedal doesn't come up as far, and I had to rebleed the clutch to get any engagement, but nothing seems to have changed after bleeding - it now slips and engages just like it did before I touched anything. I have only been bleeding under the hood and I'll put the car up and bleed at slave cylinder in a little bit.

Clutch is a Dxd Southbend Kevlar blend with the HD clutch fork.
