Default Clutch Releasing High

I heard that when the clutch starts getting worn out, that the clutch pedal starts moving farther and farther away from the start point.

My car right now has almost an inch of travel where I don't feel any resistance. In other words I think that it is releasing high, above the point that it's supposed to be.

I don't know why it is like this, the clutch is still pretty strong and shouldn't be worn out. It only has 16k on it. Does anyone know how to fix this since the clutch in the S2k is hydrolic and not like the old ones where you can just adjust the pedal?

Theres suppose to be a screw somewhere that allows you to adjust the clutch engagement point. Try running a search in the Under the hood forum. I remember reading it there.

Have you changed the clutch fluid? Made a hug difference on mine.

So you had a similar problem on yours? What kind of clutch fluid do you use now?
