Just a few nights ago, problems began. Started with very low clutch pedal engagement, and now the clutch doesn't want to disengage, great difficulty shifting, now the car is almost not drive able. I bled the hydraulic system thinking "air in the lines", no real help. It's now at the dealer and they've done the following:
1 - Replaced clutch slave cylinder and bled system - no change.
2 - Replaced clutch master cylinder and bled system - no change.
3 - Inspected clutch disc - appears fine.
4 - Inspected flywheel - no burns or obvious wear issues.
5 - Tomorrow - replace pressure plate and hope.
Could the pressure plate release fingers be worn out at 11,000 miles?
I do have an RPS lightweight flywheel, but have driven the car over 7,000 miles with the RPS and no issues, until now.
I've read all of the archives on this subject and wonder what else this could be? Any suggestions?
Hey Skip, if you're on the forum, I recall you had some issues with your clutch. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Dan
