I don't think it's a good idea to polish the ball. Just leave it the way it is and just grease it up.

Was doing some more research and it cam be possibly be the shift fork also... any input on how that could be the problem also?? Amd how much doea the slave cylinder suppose to push the fork in?? Mine barely moves half an inch...

Clutch life is 100% on the driver.

I have an S2000 coming in for its first clutch next week, it has 220,000 on the original clutch.

Also have a customer that went through two clutches in 20k, learning to drive manual.

Son of a ..... I'm really hoping this isn't my issue since I have just replaced the CMC/SMC yesterday. I did a vacuum hose from the SMC nipple back into the CMC reservoir to bleed it. I started to get the non gritty feeling in the clutch again, but it wouldn't go into gear without grinding. I also did the SMC sand/polish on the ball joint just to be sure.

How did you check about the disc? Did you pull the transmission yourself? I'm limited on funds, so I am trying to do all the work myself since I've pretty much blown a decent chunk of a clutch kit in CMC/SMC parts ><

I am having a similar problem. Car just all of the sudden would not go into gear, bled the system and the car was drivable, but not the same. replaced the mc, still the same. replace the sc, still the same. Replaced the clutch line, still the same.

At first, it seemed like a hydraulic issue for me, but then yesterday when we were changing the clutch line, it started making a high pitch think sound.

back story, before i could feel the clutch let out higher the more i drove it. Let it cool, and it would be back to normal. Driving it one day, and went to shift to 2nd and it wouldn't go in. finally got it into a gear and it was super hard to shift. pedal actually went to the floor twice, but then got the pedal back. Also started having this weird shake when I would pull out, and the pedal had a LOT more vibrations coming through it. GOing to go ahead and order a clutch and see whats wrong and just replace the TOB and clutch.
