Does this make a difference?

[hadz]

I was driving to work today and after flooring it i thought to myself i swear my pedal doesnt normally go this far down. One i had stopped at work i realised that the little plastic stopper that sits behind the pedal joined to the carpet had come right out. I have now screwed it back in but what i want to know does it make any difference what height it is set at? Does it make it any better if the pedal goes further down? I have included a few pics below to show the platic bit im talking about!

Can any1 give me any help with what height this should be set at?

Cheers!

I thought that was just to hold the plastic trim down -

Im sure that the pedal goes down and meets the plastic stopper! Could some1 give me a idea of what height it should be oz i think i have got it a bit low!

The pedal is adjustable mate so if its going down to far just get your head down there an you'l see the adjuster so you can make it move as far or as less as you want

Will it effect the performance if the plastic stopper is 2 high or 2 low?

lol...that stopper aint real. look closly

its just a mold lol

 

[hadz]

you are able to move it up and down tho because it has a thread on the bottom of it! Want i was wondering was does it make any difference to performance if u wind it up higher or have it really low?

 

[h17och]

no ytou cant move it mate. its made to look like a bold.thread but its a 1peice bit of plastic. go and look and you will kick yourself

looks like yours in cracked tho

Im talking about the little round bit of plastic with a hexagon shape in the middle, and it does move because it managed to unscrew the other day and came right out!

 

[goble]

no it does nothing for performance

You can unscrew the small plastic bit and it moved up or screw it in and it moved down meaning the pedal goes further down! i want to know if it makes any difference?

You might be able to stretch your throttle cable... That's all the difference it will make I would think...

Doubt it would allow it to go so much further down to manage to stretch it though...

except its DBW system doesnt use a throttle cable.

its not gonna make any difference really, since you cant give any more than 100% throttle

Okie doke then don't listen to me

 

[h17och]

please can someone else look at there and tell me it aint a screw/bolt.

by the sounds of it this kid has snapper the plastic and wont believe me its not an adjuster

 

[h17och]

the 1.4 is not a DBW sytem ibiza125, the cupra is tho

 

[acidstrato]

i actually did think it was a hex bolt/screw, and figured its purpose was only to hold the trim in place. to be honest i've never actually tried to undo it

 

[Myki da Pyki]

It is a screw in bolt which holds the panel down. Like i said earlier if you had taken time to read the advise given to you. The pedal itself has an adjuster on it so if your pedals moved you need to adjust the PEDAL not the plastic panel screw
