Re: Clutch problem!!

Even at idle? It may either be a rediculously burnt clutch, or you should check the clutch cylinders/lines and everything associated with them.

Re: Clutch problem!!

If you take your foot off the clutch petal and the clutch returns to you then you definatly have a clutch disk/pressure plate problem or possible but pretty rarely a throw out bearing problem. Either way you're going to be taking out your tranny.

Another clutch(?) question

Sitting at a stop light this afternoon, the light changed, I pushed in on the clutch to put the car into first and the pedal sank all the way to the floorboards with absolutely no resistance. Took about sixty seconds and much stomping on the pedal for me to be able to put the car into gear. I was able to get home just fine, with no more trouble.

I bought the car a couple months ago, and about two weeks ago I noticed serious issues when trying to go into reverse after the vehicle had been parked for the day. It started taking a couple of trys to even get it into gear, and then when I'd try to go from reverse to first, it wouldn't let me. The car would just stall. Then I could put it into first and go about my business.

Third thing: Sometimes I push down on the clutch, and the pedal refuses to pop back up into place. If i pop it up with my foot, it then functions just fine.

So: Being somewhat retarded on these issues I thought I'd see what you all thought. Clutch? Master or slave cylinders? Transmission?

Any ideas you guys might have would be greatly appreciated!
