hi everyone,

anyone know if there's a tsb for a stuck clutch. i know the dealership will ask to replicate the problem.. but it only happens every so often. how can i get this problem fixed? thanks.

 

I'm having the same problem. Only happens once in a while. Anyone have answers?? Thanks.

 

most likely its the master cylinder, i have the same problem

 

happens every one in a while for me also

 

have you tried flushing out the clutch fluid?

 

3 things it could be, clutch slave, clutch master, and the actual belleville spring in the disc, i have seen all 3 do this with the clutch master cylinder being the most rare only 2 occasions out of the 50+ times i have seen this.

Flushing the fluid to a dot 4 or higher will be a temporary fix.

 

Ok, so what exactly happens when the clutch sticks? My car has been acting kinda funky rcently......

 

i just took it into my dealership and they replaced the clutch master cylinder, luckily it was under warranty

 

To clear up the original question, no there is no bulletin for a stuck clutch. Glad to hear they replaced your problem

 

did they replicate the problem or did they take your word for it?

 

they just took my word for it

 

hmm

 

dont let this to be the reason for not buying the G. it's a small part only some cars have encountered this problem. some say the master cylinder some say it's air bubbles in the thing.. the G is still a great car

 

Before you do anything else, flush of your hydraulic clutch fluid. It is easy and cheap. Here is the link.

I know this seems almost too easy to be true. Trust me, I had my dealer check out the problem and they are clueless. They did a so called "clutch adjustment" that did absolutely nothing.

I was in the process of pricing out a new clutch and Fly Wheel when I came across the above thread. For the hell of it I tried it, and the problem was instantly cured. And that was 40,000 miles ago.

Now I flush my fluid twice a year just to be safe.

Let me know how it works.

 

^ Very interesting, I'll have to check this out.
