Clutch Problems :s

thismorning out of the blue my clutch pedal started to stick, it would flip back after a second or two

after a little driving it got worse, the clutch was engaging further down the stroke and the pedal wouldnt pop back out unless i pulled it with my feet

after leavbing it for a while and driving later on the pedal would go all the way in and only JUST engage the clutch at the last stretch, was having to force gears in, pedal wouldnt come out uinless i pulled it

left the car when i got home for 10 mins max, went to move it and the clutch pedal wont engage the clutch at all, therefore i cant put it in gear, i tried to force it into reverse and the car stalled

wats my problem :S ???

note: a few weeks ago i decided to try and lube up the pedal cos it had been squeaking when i pushed it

i used WD40 or some other similar lubricant/water dispersant. i think i used too much seeing as it all dripped down the pedal and just soaked into the carpet and i now have a nice slippy patch under the clutch lol. thought id let u know incase the WD40 might of done something ???

if u have an answer for me ill be eternally greatfull :)

you can buy a rebuild kit from nissan. you get your seals etc. just make sure you hone the cylinder out.

but i guess if your not sure what im saying, leave it to proffesionals!

thanks for the tip mate, but yeh, i have no clue off the top of my head :wave:

will just take it to a workshop or something :pirate:

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.

      Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃

      You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.

      You talking about the ones in the photo above? I guess that could make sense. Fixed (but flexible) line from the point up above down to the hubcap thingo, with a rotating air seal thingo. Then fixed (but also still likely flexible) line from the "other side" of the transfer in the hub cap thingo up to the valve stem on the rim. A horrible cludge, but something that could be done. I'd bet on the Unimog version being fed through from the back, as part of the axle assembly, without the need for the vulnerable lines out to the sides. It's amazing what you can do when you have an idea that is not quite impossible. Nearly impossible, but not quite.
