Clutch Question

[cookie--monster]

Myclutch has been slipping for ages now.Today though,all of a sudden it had gone.The pedal is as light as a feather,and it is VERY hard to put in gear.I had toforce it into first.Im hoping its just the clutch,but could it be the box as well?

The pedal has lost almost all pressure,and will not return to 'home'position..

Maybe the master/slave cyliner is also gone?

Is it usual for a clutch to go like that,i thought they mostly just slipp to the end?

what are the sure signs of damage to these components?

dunno if its just thge clutch dude... my clutch went yesterday too and the box and pedal still feels the same... just the engine revs out and the car doesnt really move

yeh could be your slave cylinder, check to see if hydrolic fluid is leaking in the rubber boot behind the pedal. that could be why your pedal is so light.

hey

i had the same problems,

it was really hard to get into first gear. (the others where fine)

the pedal was really loose and easy to push to the floor

The smell from the clutch after car is stopped was really strong like burning / oil smell.

Got it checked out and it was more than i thought.

At first i thought it was a burnt out clutch.........

It was but it was due to a faulty seal from the engine rear, where it meets the trans. oil was leaking into onto the clutch and burning it like a mofo much quicker than normal.

the pedal brackets on one side popped off, which made it soo easy to push,

i can change gears with 2 fingers now hehehe
