Can the pressure plate be adjusted in the car?

If so what are some of the tips?

Thanks

Yep, there are responses in search.

I just find the finger that contacts the release bearing first, mark it. Then use a long .0015" feeler strip and adjust the other fingers to a fairly stiff drag. Work the clutch several times and check/adjust them again. It takes a bit to lightly work the clutch pedal and feeler strip, but, it'll come.
