Yesterday first real hot day of the year 90+ degrees ...I thought I felt my acceleration response really bog down . I was trouble shooting and testing the clutch and it seemed fine . All of a sudden my clutch got stuck half way and I had to physically use my foot to bring it up but the lack of pressure behind my clutch got worse and worse . I went home decided to go home before I ended the day I checked my reservoir and it was dark so I decided to go the easy way siphon it out the stop and add dot 4 higher temp to make it lighter .. Well it worked like a charm and it got smoother and fixed the problem (there was still a squeak sounded like the assembly though) next morning (today) I go check and again stuck . I drive it for 5 mins half way I pump it a few times and now it's depressed completely and won't go into gear !

Air in lines ? Slave cylinder or master cylinder ? Both ?

Did you bleed it the slave cylinder when you re filled it?

Bennyjoel

No I did not... but the hole for the line in the reservoir I thought if I didn't allow it to be exposed to air long or at all I wouldn't have to bleed it ?

I would bleed mine old car everytime i refilled from empty..

Try it out..

Also check the pedal itself and make sure there is free movement under the dash (where its mounted)..

Miles? How do you drive the car?

Bennyjoel

I just bleed the system and omg pressure came back and it's smooth and all is well I'm so happy lol ... The sqeak is still there though

saywat?

if the fluid is dark my experience is the mc is wearing out. may still work but definitely causing the dark fluid. if you ever change it when you remove the hose ull see all rusty looking corrosion on the nipple part

saywat?

and i dont see how changing the fluid in the resevoir fixed anything probably jus some weird coincidence

I'm hoping it'll last me another 10k miles I'll replace the master/slave and clutch/fly and probably the pedal assembly ..
