Okay, well all of the sudden my clutch has gone really squishy, for lack of a better term.

The clutch has been really strong, but the all of the sudden, it's engaging maybe an inch from the floor, with a ton of travel before it engages.

I checked the fluid level, and it is full. However, i looked where the clutch pedal engages into the car itself (looks like some sort of piston) and the bar going into it is loose, it has some play, and the cylinder is leaking grease into my car, pretty bad.

My guess is the cylinder that the pedal pushes into has bad seals, and will probably need to be replaced. what do yall think?

also, anyone have a part number or price? and lastly, how do I replace the damn thing?

thanks in advance

Sounds like you have a leak in your lines or perhaps your master cylinder is going bad.

Here's the diagram for the clutch master/slave cylinder and all thats in between:

Since you are going to replace your clutch master cylinder anyways, you should look into getting a quicklutch master...will firm up your pedal feel, lower the pedal level to the deadpedal, and gives you a great engagement point.

Pretty easy fix and makes you get to know your clutch system.

hmm...looks cool, but I'm selling my car anyway, and it looks to be over twice the price of a stock unit. so i might pass this time. thanks for the tip though!
