Clutch Issues?
Hey all,
I just noticed today that I might have a problem with my clutch, It feels different, and I kinda think it feels like when I push it in all the way, that it doesnt go in all the way like it used to. I would equate it to having a clutch cable that is too long, but since it uses fluid, could it be that there isnt enough fluid in it? Thanks for the help, let me know what y'alls think! :D |
Not familiar with manual transmissions (except they are better and easier to work on), but just browsing at TDS and found a recent/active thread on a similar issue. Maybe you can find some info on it to help with your problem.
clutch on floor will not return - Diesel Forum - TheDieselStop.com |
I looked over that, but i'm not sure that is the same problem. My clutch pedal goes down all the way to the floor, and it comes up just fine, but the first 6ish inches doesnt do anything to the clutch itself, and it feels like the clutch doesnt release all the way when the pedal is all the way to the floor... I had a very hard time of putting the truck in gear, especially reverse, when the engine was on, but once the engine was off it shifted just fine.

Sounds like there might be a bit of air in the line.
Have you tried to bleed it yet? Where is the fluid leaking? |

Naww...I never have. Thats just what I've heard from other people that have. Thats not a job I would want to tackle myself on my daily driver. So the automatic is easier??? |
I couldn't tell ya which is easier... but I know the manual was expensive :/. $500ish to replace the master and slave cylinders, but it works great now! :D

Manual tranny hard parts can be VERY expensive. I think most believe they are cheap to fix and hardly ever break, but the cost to rebuild a ZF is nearly double what it would be to do a 4R100.
