Clutch Pedal rattle

The clutch is working fine, but I notice that at highway speed it rattles a little. If I touch the pedal slightly it goes away...or pull it forward slightly. Can I adjust it so that there is no space between the arm and the stop?
Thanks!

Per Repair manual page 51 fig. 96, 1mm clearance between the rod tip and the master cylinder piston.

I find it amazing that you can pick out individual rattles in your vehicle. I have one I cannot locate (seems to be on the right side) while moving and when I stop it stops...Hmmmmmmm.

Only reason I found it was because my foot brushed against the clutch pedal and it went away. It is fairly new though....or I think it is...
As for the ear plugs...well I have a pack of buds in my new centre console!!

:idea: It may also be less noticeable if you slow down to 55 – 60 mph, traveling at
“Highway speeds” maybe a bit much for the Pinz.

60MPH is what I was doing...seriously
. I own a Ural, so I am well versed with keeping a vehicle well within its specs and I am fine with that. I went across the US and Canada last September on my Ural and never went faster than 65MPH (downhill!). That included highways and secondaries.
