Heavy Clutch?

[2011Z4Newbie]

Hi All,

Been driving my Z4 for a couple days now. Decided to get the manual gearbox and absolutely love it.

However my commute to work can take over an hour with a lot being stuck in deadlock traffic. Compared to other manuals I’ve driven the clutch seems to be quite heavy with a lot of travel distance to go fully down.

Is this normal? I’m guessing I’ll just get used to it.

Cheers

Probably subjective. I don’t feel my clutch is overly heavy but that said it’s not my daily so rarely end up stuck in slow moving traffic.

Should have got the auto..so much better!

Does removing the CFV alter matters?

Could go to my local go kart track for an open top sports car .
I have looked at removing the CFV, however I don't wanna to risk damaging the clutch or providing additional wear. I think it'll just take some time to get used to it tbh.

My 20i clutch was noticeably lighter than the one on my 3.0si, lighter than most cars I’d say.
