Clutch

I was wondering if the clutch on the M235i was adjustable....
next time i go for servicing can i ask them to change the timing
It feels that when i am at the point of friction the car barely moves but i feel like it wants to force

It's the same old boring troll again. He needs to get his head adjusted, not his clutch.

On second thought, his clutch does seem to be slipping...

The only slippage around here is between your ears.

Are you sure it's not slipping because you're trying to drive it through a river? Some ID10T from this board tried doing that a few weeks back and didn't make it too far. You wouldn't want to be that guy...
