Okay, so I got my car back yesterday after having a new clutch pedal assembly and UPR quadrant and firewall adjuster installed. The first thing I noticed is that the pedal shakes like crazy driving down the road. IT"S SO F****** ANNOYING. And also the clutch engages rather low to the floor.
I have done some research, and it seems that the firewall adjuster is fairly easy to access and I can adjust it myself. Now, if I turn the adjuster, will that remove the vibrations in the pedal? Will that tighten up the cable? I know I can get the clutch to engage higher from the floor adjusting it, but will it also remove the huge amount of play? I need answers as soon as possible. After work, I am going to go home and try to adjust this myself before I lose my mind. Thanks in advance!
Also, the mechanic who installed everything says that my cable is stretched and that is why it vibrates. However, my regular mechanic (who was out of town and couldn't do the install) has been texting me saying that the stretched cable shouldn't matter with the firewall adjuster, and adjusting it should remove the play.
I need someone to clear up all of this for me. Do I need a new cable? Or is my current cable still fine, it just needs to be adjusted?
