Hard to tell engagement point? Lol, stop wearing boots. You can always feel engagement points.Will be getting the software update next friday. My clutch feels like butter, so much so that it is hard to tell where the engagement point is as compared to other manuals I had growing up (shitty 80s mazda 3, couple of routine GTIs, a unique Saab 900 and an awesome but expensive 03 BMW 325ixT).
I will report back on whether the software fix appears to make any change in day to day driving. I have just under 5K miles on my JTR now.
I'm starting to think that the issue is a bad release bearing, that could cause the clutch to slip right? Even if youre starting to just learn a manual, how to get the flywheel to that temperture?? You have to be purposely abusing it or something else has to cause it, no?I am extremely disappointed in this proposed software repair.After being a Jeep owner of several Jeeps for 40+ years I finally talked myself into buying a new 2020 Gladiator and I love it.I believe I will throw my passion into organizing a class action law suit to facilitate a clutch repair that doesn't lower performance and won't blow up.
Def make sure you get it checked, mine went back to normal out of the blue today. Clearly that means it should not feel gritty or that its rubbing something. When the engine is on, im assuming the only thing that changes is the release bearing moving? Hopefully, mine remains normal.When it goes in for the update I'll have it checked out. For now, it drives like it's supposed to
