clutch pedal adjustment?

sorry if this is in the wrong section guys.
but anyways my clutch pedal is soft and wish to have it a little heavier. i know our cars have auto clutch adjustment or however u say it. but is there any way to make it stiffer like bleeding the brakes

I don't know how many miles you have on your car but if you have like 20k+ you can bleed your clutch and it will be stiffer than before afterwards.

And to answer your pm, i have an aftermarket clutch, that's why my pedal catches so low. I cannot make it catch higher.

you might adjust it to engage higher, might burn the clutch faster tho

why bleed the clutch system when it is a closed seal unit...only time u need to bleed the clutch is when u replace the cmc...

why adjust the clutch pedal freeplay when you can adjust the pedal wrong to actually wear out your clutch faster...

leave it alone. you want a stiffer clutch get stage1 or higher clutch..
