Clutch Pedal Issues
Hi,
I have been having some troubles with my clutch pedal recently on my turbo. The clutch does not spring back fully to level with the brake pedal, I have to pull it back with my foot to make them even. Also, the clutch does not disengage until it is almost fully depressed and seems to be getting worse. I fear that soon I will depress the clutch fully and it will not have enough travel to operate the clutch. Anyway, I am not sure what the problem is. Do I have to adjust a linkage or does my clutch master cylinder need to be rebled or replaced. I'm not sure what the problem could be so I thought that I would ask you guys for some help. Thanks again!

Clutch master cylinder. Change the slave too, while youre at it.

check the fluid level... bleed the clutch. if you dont get any improvement, replace both cylinders.

This happened to me a couple of times and was able to just fix the slave cylinder. While you're in there, it would not be bad to change both, though.

Agreed. Change both master and slave cylinder.

It might also be that really cheap clutch replacement. Mine is doing the exact same thing. I replaced both cyliders and bleed the livin' krap out of the system, but the problem's still there. I noticed mine while going into turn 7 at Sebring last month. Boy is that a confidance builder!!
