Chimaera Pedal Adjustment

[Grey Ghost]

I need to adjust the setting of the clutch and brake pedals in my '98 450 Chimaera. I've tried the largest of the spanners I have and none of these is big enough to fit the retaining nut.

So, simple question I hope, what size do I need to complete the job?

Thanks in advance

Look's like a sensible option for tomorrow's trip to Halfrauds

I agree, but don't get the Imperial adjustable as it won't fit......

You may need a left handed screwdriver and a glass hammer

I am sure its a 19mm IIRC or that might be the alloy ones? got a set sitting out side to go in the cerb will have a look in the morning.

LOL

I'm considering treating myself to a set of the Halfrauds professional socket sets with the intention of learning how to do a few things myself going forward.

Will add a long weight and a can of elbow grease to the list

Bring the spanner round when you've finished with it (the metric one, not Silicone Kid ) - cheers petal

The 19mm Halfrauds special worked a treat and can be dropped off next time I'm passing.

Strange how something simple like adjusting the pedals and re-positioning the seat can make driving feel so much more comfortable

At least you'll now be able to turn the wheel without having to hold your stomach in ....

Very funny you couple of Gheyers. The weight issue is already being addressed and the power issue will be resolved in 2 weeks time when the car is dropped off at Dom's

Only question now is do I go with one of Dom's new 100,000 mile warrantied RV8 rebuilds

I would have thought that resolving the weight issue would automatically resolve the power issue ....
