Default Help!

The clutch has a lot of slack before it feels like i'm engaging... I have to press it almost all the way down before the clutch engages.

it's very hard to shift into 1st gear and 2nd gear and extremely difficult to get the car to shift into reverse.

The car currently has 121k miles and the clutch was replaced in 11/20/09 at 102,100 miles...

When the car is off, i can shift the car into every gear but it's not a smooth as it was before (when car was on)

=(

9/10 times, its your clutch master leaking. A good bleed and fluid flush will alleviate the problem. It might possibly fix it or you might need to replace the master cylinder depending how badly it is leaking.

Thanks... I finally found a thread in here that talks about the same pedal "feeling" i have. My link

I'm thinking I have to replace the master cylinder since i have no leaks, but i will do a bleed and fluid flush...

If anything i just hope i need a new master cylinder, i do not want to spend the $$$ on another clutch

Thanks again!
