Hey all i have a manual TS V6 that has a clutch problem.
Twice now when I have gone to let the clutch out its hasn't come back :shock: its stayed at the fully depressed point and will only come back if i stick my foot behind it and pull it up. Then it seems to be fine.
First time it happened was a few months ago when I was cruising up the freeway (to Mt Barker for those playing in SA). As we were coming into Mt Barker and into a car park it was getting harder and harder to go into any gear. Until when i eventually stopped and went to let the clutch out and ........ no clutch.
Left it for a while, then it was fine driving back to the city (still felt a bit harder than usual to get it into a gear)
Second incident was yesterday morning. Get in to car to drive to work, started it with the clutch in. Tried to put in reverse and it just crunched. I take my foot of the clutch and it stays on the floor. Pull it up and gave it a few pumps and all was good again :confused:
So anyone have an idea about what it could be?
If its something serious I wana get it fixed before the clutch decides to toatally go and I get stuck in peak hour traffic on the way to work or something crap like that.
