nice job! no more smashing down the brake just to stop lol

[@user-wx6ph8fs9r]

There is no requirement to remove the black screws like on the video. These hold the pedals in place and if you want them all to fall all over the place then follow the video. Remove the silver screws and the pedal covers then just the black screws for the brake pedal then crack on.

[@rooin5517]

thank you for this, I watched 2 separate tutorials and they both approached it from opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of how many screws taken off, and it seemed like there was a better middle ground that you pointed out.

[@kroneyt1493]

It wasn't very soft and squishy rubber in my brake pedal. It was so bad that I really had to adjust how I drove to compensate for the real lack of an actual brake pedal that I had. I was actually pushing the pedals away from me trying to stomp on it, it made driving less fun.

[@zyeehaw9018]

yeah mine was basically solid plastic, after some brake distance testing it was about 25-30% of the actual potential braking power

[@andreasthiemke9520]

Also even if you managed to get enough grip under the pedals that they wouldn't get pushed away your chair would just move back instead. Feels like they put it in to make it so that people removed it and voided their warranty

[@paulwubben7506]

A tool list at the beginning of the video would be hugely beneficial. I made 4 separate trips to the garage. PS the nut is a 10mm.

[@marcco954]

I just bought G929 and seriously... I needed to remove the rubber. I know how the track car brake feels like but this... is just too much. It's far from heavy brake pedal. It's more of like something stuck under the pedal. BTW Your video helped me a lot. Thanks!

Warning all you need is a 2.5 Allen key on the back of the pedal take the two bolts off of the brake and remove the rubber it’s way easier. This method usually is way shorter so I’m trying to help you guys.

[@jvdj4912]

I forgot this. And did the first part. Only to be met with taking of pedal would be smarter to have been done first. When i look at pedal i remember that only 2 freaking screws ate needed to be removed and ALL of this would been skipped -.-

Great vid! I did this mod with my son's wheel set and he is very happy! Before this, he had reached the point that he hated the set because the braking was so awful. Thanks! I can't imagine why Logitech put that thing in there - it does not feel like the brakes of any of the multitude of real cars I've driven. Much better now. Thanks again.

[@IsM1ku]

For anyone watching this, you only really need to take off the brake pedal from the top and just take out the spring and the rubber and just put the spring back, it's a bit fiddly but much better than OPENING UP THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY. There's like a 3 minute video about it by some British guy, yes he did the whole thing in a couple of minutes

[@4Panccaa4]

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I just did this on my Logitech G29 pedals and it worked and now my brake isn't stiff! Thank you so much man.

[@che17grr]

Bro thank you so much! Everywhere I looked I was getting so discouraged by "replace spring with new upgrade" and Yada Yada everywhere else but you made it so easy and simple. I haven't tried it out yet but I'm about to, and I can already tell by pressing the brakes they are MUCH much lighter yet still have a little bit more resistance than the clutch. Have a follow mate keep it up ✊

[@justice7ca245]

This video helped me a ton, really fixed my brake pedal. I'm not sure a stopper is even needed if you keep the spring

[@mikedeboer3565]

David Smith is there still some resistence of the brake? I'm considering doing this mod for myself.

[@killgore392]

Yes it still has resistance I used to own the g27 and those pedals were fine Logitech put that rubber piece there for “realistic” feel but it just feels like you can’t brake all the way. After removing the stopper if you put the spring back right it feels good and you can brake 100% without putting your foot through the floor. Or even cutting the rubber block down would help

[@xyuop586]

Really good video and instructions. My brakes now work as they should have from the manufacturer.

[@rnga_hairz8256]

When I first tried it I literally binded my clutch as a brake because the brake petal was so stiff. And my desk has a lip on the edge where the wheel clips on and when I would push the brake I would literally pull the wheel off aswell but I’ve just taken the thing out super simple super easy thank you works perfectly now

[@carterodell2902]

Thanks, haven't used my G920 much just because of the brake pedal just got a PC so i decided to check it out and get software. This feels so much better and i appreciate this video even though it is almost 4 years old.LOL

[@wesleykite7011]

does your pedal wobble?

[@andrewspark5909]

Thanks for the video. I needed that tip on unloading the pin by pulling back the spring. Mine is fixed. The brake pedal still feels more resistance than the accelerator; which feels just right to me. Thanks again.

[@zackgottlich6489]

6 years later my man is still doing God's work

[@Toutvids]

Calibrate the pedal, that's all you have to do. Oh, and yes they programmed a steeper curve in the software to compensate for the rubber.

[@mxnuuel4008]

how would one calibrate the pedal?

[@Taser1-1]

Mxnuuel who knows

[@ALLVARLiGT]

Great idea, doesn't work. Not for me anyway, but i definitely suggest people try calibrating and fiddling with settings before moving on to the videos method. Using both the driver tool for this wheel and maxing out sensitivity and deadzones in the several games i tested, i still couldnt reach 100% breaking power because the button simply couldn't press down fully, atleast not without pushing a hole through the floor.

[@SJ_606]

@@ALLVARLiGT in Asseto Corsa settings for Xbox One you can not calibrate brake.. So this is the best solution.

[@stevenlarson3316]

@@mxnuuel4008 Kind of an old post, but maybe others can benefit as well. Go to "Game Controllers" menu in windows. Type it in the search bar. When that comes up go to your g920 properties, then settings and calibrate it. Then it will work without having to mess with in game settings. Or go watch this video if you need more assistance. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3iWgWpsg810rs0 I did this at first but just ended up taking the rubber piece out and recalibrating it. The break spring is stronger than the clutch or gas pedals so it's not like it bottoms out anyways. I feel like the idea to put a rubber stop in there somehow went through at the last minute without proper testing.

[@cupofmozzarella]

Good vid. The rubber itself isn't bad but when you race with just a desk chair you either go backwards whenever you brake or almost take the wheel off. You lose a bit of precision in braking but that's ok for now.

[@StormAries]

you dont need to take it apart from underneath. the pedals on the side hhave an allan key screw x2 you can take off and get to the rubber

[@vladislavvasilevw]

Do you know if its good idea to cut the rubber, and put half of it in the spring again bcs i dont like when its too soft and too hard 😅

[@StormAries]

@@vladislavvasilevw definitely the best option imo

[@Widnezz]

great video but i did find that you don't actually have to remove the peddle, you can easily remove the rubber bit white the peddle is still on there!

you could do this from upper side. a lot less screws to remove.

[@colin2623]

My rubber was way harder than that. Take that as you will.

[@Nemesisrooster]

@Subaru Gerbil, same here. Mine was more like a solid block and far from squishy

[@TheOneDI]

I just bought this wheel, and hate the brake, need to do this mod, im using clutch as brake right now, on F1

[@Delimon007]

I don't get why the stopper is even there, I was testing it on GT sport where you can't change the settings like you can on PC and the stopper was at 60-65% brake pressure before you have to seriously mash down on the brakes to get to 100%. If they were going it use a stopper it should have been a lot smaller.

[@bentley6412]

Just followed step by step, brilliant mate, will let you know how the results are ASAP

[@dilligafpb69]

Just for future people doing this, the black screws you can leave. Maybe take the middle 4 screws out if you need to take the brake pedal right out but the other 8 you can leave. Will just save you time unscrewing those you don’t need to.

its a mystery to why they put the rubber block inside and there is a simpler way to get it!!! also the brake spring seems to be more stiff as is and the gas spring is easy tension!! i need to find the springs with even tension as the clutch!! i use allen wrenches and a flat head screwdriver without removing the bottom!!

You don't need to remove the black screws. It's half the job and on top it's easier... Also use half the size of the original rubber piece of a school rubber, only the spring is way to soft....
