Q: How to check and adjust the clutch pedal height and freeplay on Toyota Matrix?
A: Peel back the carpet and check the clutch pedal height. If the pedal height is incorrect, loosen the locknut and turn the stopper bolt until the height is correct. Tighten the locknut. Press down lightly on the clutch pedal and measure the distance that it moves freely before the clutch resistance is felt. The Freeplay should be within the specified limits. If it isn't, it must be adjusted. Loosen the locknut on the pedal end of the clutch pushrod. Turn the pushrod until the pedal free play is correct. Tighten the locknut. After adjusting the pedal free play, check the pedal height again, adjusting it if necessary.
