On my TD it appears that the bar is meant to hit the switch. When fully depressed the bar does not quite touch the switch - less than a 1/4 inch I would say. The switch itself has some travel so overall the bar could be 1/2 inch shy of full travel.
I have some sticky beige goo on the switch that appears to be dripping down from somewhere under the dash. Like some reverted adhesive. It does not seem in any way related but that is the gunk showing on the switch.
