2) Is there clearance between the clutch master cylinder push rod and the piston? It will be felt as a small amount of pedal free play.
Other than this free play, the clutch release mechanism is self adjusting.
I am not sure what is included in ' self adjusting release mechanism ' but it may compensate only within the design specifications... thus if the ' clutch disc friction material ' is past the wear limit....it might need to be checked...
The wear can be checked using tool 115 589 07 23 00 according to the Haynes manual...
