Default Hydraulic clutch adjustment

Is there any way to adjust the clutch catch point on the 2011+s with hydraulic clutches?

I dont have any real complaints about it and it seems to stay in a decent adjustment, im just trying to find out if there is any way to adjust these at all.

Doubtful, the 2005-2010 have no way to adjust.

Hydraulic slave cylinders are inherently self-adjusting, just like brake calipers automatically
adjust as your pads wear thinner.

While the above statements are for the most part true there are cases where adjustments are necessary. The slave cylinder can be shimmed out which allows more travel that is sometimes needed to get clean shifts. This not easy to do as it requires dropping the transmission. It will solve some issues with clutches and if does it a lot cheaper than buying a new clutch.
