Pedal heights

Post by MikeD » Sun Feb 24, 2008 8:47 pm

Anyone know how to adjust the pedal heights , I would like to have all the pedals at the same height. At the moment the clutch and the brake are a little higher than the gas, any ideas. Also on my S4 I fitted an extra oil cooler, anyone done that to an RS4 B7 yet the oil temp is a little high.

Normal driving = 108 +/- , Energetic = 118 +/-. At this time of year, but in the summer here in Spain we get air temps just above the road over 45ºC so I would like to sort it now . Am I right in thinking that oil should be below 125ºC at all times??

I get temps as high as 129 on the track. I regularly change the oil though.

My pedals are about right for heel toe use but I agree that for normal driving the brake is alittle high and can catch your throttle foot if not careful.
