Posted by Lo RS 4Me, Sep-26-02 12:11 PM
ok i was driving home the other night... this has happend before.. my clutch master cylinder is a small bit leaky and leaks like at the freakest of times, sometimes it will go a month w/o leaking out.. anyways i always check my fliud, it all decided to leak all the way out the other night and as i drove home it got worse and worse until it was almost impossible to shift, i was almost home to so kept driving. by the time i reached my drivway there was NO WAY it would go in gear, this has happend before and i just bleed the air out of the slave bolt and refil it all and my clutct pedal gets stiffer and always lets me shift... this time i did it... and it still won't go in gear... = < what's wrong ????

It's leaking. :rolleyes

Ok, enough with the smart ass remarks. Seriously though, a trickle can turn into a waterfall on a hydraulic system real quick. It's not like oil(that can blow by the rings), the brake and clutch hydraulics are lossless systems. They do NOT leak or loose fluid for any good reason whatsoever. :nono

You may be able to get a brake master cylinder rebuild kit to replace all of the seals(anyone?). If not then you'll have to replace the master cylinder. After stopping all of the leaks, just bleed the system and you should be golden.

Replace or rebiult the clucth master cylinder. rebiuld kit only cost $15 at autozone. My car did the same thing early this year. I kept refilling it till one day it don't want to go in gear anymore...
