high clutch engafement
I am the second owner of a 2012 ZL1...when the clutch engages the peddel is almost all the way up...I have not ever had a new hyd clutch just old school style fork mechanical diaphram style ...when if you pushed the throwout bearing in too far you could over center the pressure plate and have a sticking peddle ....is mine normal...the car has only18 thousand miles

Normal. I've driven three stock twin-disk clutches in ZL1's. All of them engaged at the very top of the travel.

Yup, normal for the ZL1's....
I felt like a spaz when I first got mine, till I realized ya don't have to push the clutch any farther than necessary. It doesn't take long to get used to it. |
