you have got the quadrant set too high the clutch has to bite at the bottom,ap clutches are bloody good stay with it m8.. the mk5 pedal is easy to setup just a bit time consuming to get right.. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON ANOTHER CLUTCH absolutely no need

Paddle is overkill for 220BHP -

You should get an AP Organic CP2000-8. The Mk5 pedal conversion is very very good....if your having problems then it must be fitted incorrectly!
